Day 16- In Keokuk, IA today.

Monica took me to Keokuk this morning where she is giving massages at the YMCA.

My paternal grandparents got married in Keokuk sometime in the 1920s I believe. At the time grandma lived down in Washington County IA and grandpa lived in Morton, IL so they may have figured that Keokuk was roughly half way between the two locations. And, of course, back in those days travel was more arduous than it is today.

I'm going to hike around Keokuk and meet some people and see what's going on in this town.
