Dubuque

  Dubuque is one of the oldest, if not the oldest, cities in Iowa. Sitting on bluffs over looking the river it is a diverse city. Used to seperated into areas by nationality or religion. Has some beautiful old structures.

  One of the most interesting was the one for First United Methodist Church. Reportedly they have the fifth largest collection of stained glass works by Louis Tiffany. We saw a large collection of his work last year in Winter Park Florida. The windows we saw, and the building itself, were stunning. We make a point of touring old, interesting  church buildings. This one rates at the top.

 Of course we could not pass up a chance to visit a museum. This was a large, informative museum.

 There are two casinos in town, one owned by the city. Sad to say our luck was not good.



Tomorrow we move on to Apple Valley Minnesota, a suburb of Minneapolis/St Paul. We will be there for three nights.
