Walnut Antique Show 2008 ~ Getting There

It's been a busy few weeks since the 2008 AMVETS Antique Show in Walnut, Iowa, so I am a bit behind in posting. I thought I would post in two parts as I have quite a few photos ~ below are some shots from our travels to Walnut this year.

Someone has a sense of humor ~ and I'm not referring to the gas price!

{Steakhouse/Lounge in Atlantic}
This is on the list for next year ~ I just have to try some Oinker Sauce!

We had a great time at Walnut again this year ~ even if it did take us a little longer to get there due to a few flooded roads and detours ~ we ended up going through some towns we hadn't seen before, so that was fun. Upon arrival, we shopped the show until 5 and then traveled through Atlantic to Anita, where we camped at the State Park. We packed up early Saturday morning and headed back to Walnut for a full day at the antique show ~ tomorrow I will post the photos from the show!
