With our border crossing delay yesterday, we had to find an alternative stop for the night. We belong to an organization called “Boondockers Welcome” which is now part of Harvest Hosts. For a small yearly membership (less than a night of camping) we have access to a network of individuals who have opened their property to campers travelling the country. We’ve been members now for about 8 years and have had some memorable hosts. While last night’s host was only a km off the interstate, his property was a couple hundred feet of heavy bush from the road. However, with windows closed, we had a good night’s sleep and after a brief tour this morning of some of the work he’s done to his property, we were back on the road. Today is a trip through Chicago so we pray for safe travels as we head into Iowa for the night.
