Sept. 5, 2019
We got on the road 7 a.m. and rode through Indiana,
Illinois and Iowa, stopping in Davenport for the night.
Today was uneventful, light traffic, sunshine but slow due to road construction. However, no stops, so we kept moving right along. Actually, a good travel day. Fields of corn, flat farm land, and wind farms/windmills.
After a very good meal at a local diner on the River Walk in downtown Davenport (yes, I took a food pic, spared you), we took in a minor league baseball game. A beautiful stadium along the Mississippi River. This is the owner, Dave Heller. He greets every guest as they arrive. He said he is a friend of Alan Stein, retired president of Lexington Legends.
I snagged a shirt, grabbed it in the air, Clyde is still LOL about my catch. Really, who taught Becky to play ball??? Well, I had her in the front yard playing whiffle ball, but that counts.
They had a beautiful Ferris wheel in the outfield. Lit up with all color lights after dark.
The bridge was beautiful as we were walking back to our car.
We ended the night with a second shirt. A fun filled evening supporting a local baseball team.
