Time to take the backroads, find a farmstand, and make a day of it!

Grab a coffee. Take a selfie. Pick up something good.
However you spend the day, we want to see it!

WILL BRAKE FOR
FARMSTANDS!!
As I was hopping along the southern border of Iowa this morning, we saw a sign....
👀 "FARM STAND ➡️➡️➡️"
So, of course, we did!!
We're not sad, nor sorry.
Choc Chip Cookies? Yum.
Cinnamon Rolls? Great.
Monster Cookie? FAB!!
This one gets a big thumbs up from us! 👍💋

Mission accomplished.

Hey Kids!
We're not only here to promote your stand, but do you need STAND help? Got a pesky varmint? Traffic issue? Wind blowing you away? Camera advice? (Because let's face it, we all need it! )
What's your issue?? Pic for attention- he's somewhat helpful, sometimes....
