Such a beautiful day. When the warm sunny weather caused the Asian Lady Beetles to become intolerable, we gave the Indian a quick spritz and hit the road, it may be our last chance for the year. It was 77° when we pulled out of the driveway. First we went to Pike's Peak State Park in Iowa south of MacGregor. There are several over looks that allow you to see the confluence of the Wisconsin River where it debouches into the Mississippi River. A very historic place and interesting to view from above and perhaps a mile away.
The foliage that remains is mainly Oaks but the colors are excellent this Fall, lots of yellows, reds, and maroons. We recrossed the Mississippi back into Wisconsin at Prairie Du Chien and it was 86° briefly, the highest temperature we saw on our ride. It only dropped to 58° over night so it will be warm again today.
