The two RV Gypsies
in Amana, Iowa |
Below: The campground, downtown art, and a local restaurant. |

The entrance to Amana Colonies RV Park in Iowa County, Iowa. |

The roads were dusty dirt roads. There was no pool, no club house, no cable TV. This is a Passport America club, but it does not accept Passport America in August and September due to events. RVs and cars can ONLY be bucket washed, no exceptions. No more than 4 adults per one regular RV or tent site; there is an extra charge for more than two adults at a site. Most other standard campground rules applied. It was a large campground, but not too exciting of an area, unless during an event time. There were biting flies in the campground. The campground had unsecured Wi-Fi, but the two RV Gypsies used their own Wi-Fi. Check in and check-out time was noon. |

The two RV Gypsies ate at Ox Yoke Inn |
|
The reason the two RV Gypsies ate here is because Lee wanted potato pancakes, which he liked. The food was not as "German" as the two RV Gypsies expected though. They had plated meals and family-style meals. Karen Duquette had the Sauerbraten which was tender and served with potato dumplings that were awful. She also had to send back her Margarita because it was the worst Margarita she ever had. Lee Duquette had The Honey Apple Pork Loin and he liked it. NO, the two RV Gypsies would never eat here again. |

Good Quilts Store |
|
The store was closed when the two RV Gypsies got there. They only stopped because of the Menagerie of art all around the building (which had nothing to do with quilts). Some were cute, many were in the price range of $110 or more even though they were rusted. |
