... they will come. And we came - to the Field of Dreams in Dyersburg, Iowa. The farm house & baseball field made famous by the Kevin Costner movie about the son of "Shoeless Joe" were on our way from Dubuque to Dan's grandparents who live in Southeastern Iowa.
I think I've seen the movie - but no one else in my family has ... and now we'll have to rent it to figure out exactly what it was all about!
It was a cloudy late morning that we were there - but surprisingly several other tourists were there also - on the field, throwing baseballs and buying cheap souvenier tshirts.
After a brief overnight visit with Dan's grandparents, today we made our way back home. It is nice to be home - but I wish we could have had just a few more days until we have to face reality again. Actually, Dan and the kids will be off to church camp on Monday morning while I go back to the routine of my part time job. I'm hopeful for a quiet week, having some time to get things done at home without interruption as well - like cleaning out my kids' rooms, trying to find a little space to put a baby!
