These photos are from a road trip I took to Spooner, Wisconsin in October 2003 to
visit the Wisconsin Great Northern Railroad. This trip also doubled as
the "last hurrah" trip for the Lumina, so I tried to stick to the state
highways when possible, to enjoy the ride. The route went to Dubuque, IA on
Highway 61, over to Dyersville, IA, up to Spooner, WI via Highways 61 and 53, back
to Dubuque via Austin, MN and Waterloo, Iowa, then back to St. Louis on
Highway 67. Besides the main attractions, there were some other interesting
things along the way that I tried to get photos of.
The most interesting pictures from the trip are here:
There are also some miscellaneous photos that didn't quite fit anywhere else, presented below:

While on the way to Hannibal, MO, via Highway 79, I wound up
passing 3 different BNSF trains along the way. This shot is
a little north of Foley, MO.
