Today is the last day of school for my kids which means it's the start of the summer for our family. We spent some time over the last week thinking about some fun things we'd like to do over the next few months and this is what we came up with!

Today is the first day of summer break from school for my kids so we took some time to create this year's Summer Bucket List!
Earlier this month, our family had the opportunity to visit the Hartman Reserve Nature Center in Cedar Falls, Iowa, for their annual Maple Syrup Festival. We were excited to get tickets for this annual event; the festival was a great blend of nature, education, and, of course, delicious food!
Over the years, our family has enjoyed visiting time and time again, the John Deere Tractor & Engine Museum in Waterloo, Iowa. This museum has become a favorite destination for us, offering interactive displays, well-preserved artifacts, and engaging exhibits for all ages. Best of all, admission is free!
Yesterday, before attending a Silos & Smokestacks National Heritage Area Board of Trustees meeting in Waterloo, Iowa, I finally took the time to stop at a place I’ve driven by countless times - the Sullivan Brothers Iowa Veterans Museum. I’m so glad I did!
The museum is part of the Grout Museum District, which is a member of the Silos & Smokestacks National Heritage Area. This heritage area is a network of museums and historical sites in the Northeast quadrant of Iowa that collectively tell the story of Iowa and the heritage of American agriculture. It’s an honor for me to begin my term this year as a board member for such an impactful organization.
