Hi Iowa people
Just wanted to say how nice everyone is in Dubuque. We visited today, wandered around downtown, visited some stores and eat at Jitterz coffee shop on Main St and had a lovely time.




We (Chicago born US wife and I) love the area and are currently staying in Galena, IL. Another lovely town.  I'll recommend the area to all my UK friends but doubt they'll ever visit. They always just go to NYC or Disneyland.




That is all. Carry on.




Colin

The wife's grandparents live in Dubuque and we try to make it over there every couple of months.  Great group of people and a fun trip every time.  If you get an opportunity hit up the West Dubuque Tap for breakfast

should've let us know you were coming and we'd set up a range session full of some real 'goodies'...

Dubuque is one of the few Iowa river towns that has successfully transitioned away from the industrial economic model.  Nice place.

We'll be back again and will let you all know Spent the last few days down on a farm in Paxton IL. Very rural place with no access to internet for me, which was a nice break.  Got to do some Skeet shooting on their private Skeet range. So nice to have a bit of land and just shoot when you want.  Will be back to restrictive, cramped UK soon  But not for long

My wife and I spent a week in Stirling Scotland in 2009 and another 4 days in Edinbourgh and London.  We really liked our time in the UK.  Welcome.  kwg

Next time you're in Dubuque check out The Bank on Main St.  Great food and usually great live music on the weekends.
