Even before the 1992 publication of Robert James Waller’s novel and the 1995 release of the movie starring Clint Eastwood and Meryl Streep the Bridges of Madison County, Iowa have been celebrated. This one was moved to Winterset City Park in 1970 before the first Covered Bridge Festival. We checked it out after a dinner at the Northside Cafe in town but weren’t inclined to seek any others or even any geocaches in this extreme heat. It’s not just the humidity, it’s also the heat, with heat index over 105°F !
Bletchley Park
It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.
