Monday July 19th Manchester Iown






Left Davenport IA around 10:30, gased up the motorhome and drove 106 miles to Manchester Iowa. I was born about 13 miles from Manchester in a small farming town named Greeley. We will spend a week camping at the Delaware County Fairgrounds in Manchester. My cousin Janet lives here and my cousin Jack whom we spent a week with in Texas arrived here today. If you haven't noticed we are camping behind the cemetery and I have some relatives buried there. Janet and Jack are the campers to the left in the picture. Manchester is the county seat, so for a small Iowa town it is still busy and the downtown area is still active. For dinner we had some smoked Iowa port chops and fresh sweet corn. There are corn fields everywhere here and this time of year is the time to see all of the farms with their corn fields and soybean fields in full array.
