The Bridges of Madison County


We took a family road trip on Saturday to Winterset, Iowa to go to the Bridges of Madison County Fall Festival. It was a long day, but we had so much fun! We walked around the town square, went and looked at two covered bridges, played at a cool park, and climbed a cool, castle-looking lookout tower. The beauty around us was breathtaking and we were lucky enough to have awesome weather. The trees were all changing color and it was just an amazing time! There was an awful lot of playing in the leaves. Fall is my favorite time of year and I loved hearing the leaves crunch under our feet and the smell of the leaves and watching the kids play in the leaves. I would highly recommend this. I would like to go back without the kids to see the other bridges that we didn't make it to. There was even a stone bridge we didn't get to stop at that was in the movie Bridges of Madison County. Good, good times.
