This morning, we met at First United Methodist and hit the road. We drove through miles and miles of corn fields to our first destination, the Villisca Ax Murder House! YouTubers and ghost hunters have made this house famous. Today was the 113th anniversary of the murders so we couldn't pass up this spooky attraction!
Rachel and Sophi have relatives in Iowa and have had the delicacy known as Casey's Pizza. Several host homes talked about this pizza too, and we found out it is the best selling pizza in Iowa. What's unique about this is Casey's is a gas station, similar to Maverik in Utah, but with great pizza! Rachel couldn't leave Iowa without a taco pizza... so today, we made that happen.
The chaperones tried some brisket pizza and it was pretty good!
We made our way to St. Andrew:
They treated us to a lasagna dinner as well as veggie burgers and gf buns. There was also a salad bar and dessert. This was a much newer church than we played in last night, less than 10 years old. It is fun to play in so many different types of churches within just a few days:
Younger ringers enjoyed watching while the seniors played their senior piece:
We love having visitors on tour! Here is Kelly and a co-worker who just retired to Iowa:
Rachel, Sophi and the Arlens:
Will's grandma and friend, Dave, drove from Missouri to see the choir. There's a rumor she will be sending us back on the road with cookies!
There are some fires bringing smoke to the area. The only upside to that is beautiful pictures of the Strawberry Moon, courtesy Terry:
It's another short night with a bus trip tomorrow to the highly anticipated House On The Rock in Wisconsin!
