On Sunday, the three of us traveled to this darling city
To see this cool guy
and to meet his girlfriend Melissa, who is really cool, too.
She's next to Nick in the picture below
We had a great time touring this adorable city that borders both Wisconsin and Illinois. James was a pretty good trooper, despite only sleeping all of about 5 minutes the entire day (seen here)
I think it helped that he received royal treatment from Daddy and Nick
We recently read that Dubuque is the San Fransisco of the Midwest, and it lived up to the hype. They have a "cable car' in the form of the Fenlon Place Elevator, which was built in 1882. Although Melissa and Nick assured us it was safe (I believe their words were "I think it's safe"), we opted just to take pictures instead of going for a ride on the world's shortest, steepest scenic railway.
But we did drive to the top of the hill to take in the view (and some additional photos)
Same pic, but with some B&W action
James was gazing at the horizon, longing for some sunglasses like the big boys
Dada came through
A big thank you to Nick & Melissa for the hospitality! We hope to visit again soon.
