             IOWA THE Hawkeye State

Hello Boys and Girls. The train has already 

come and picked me up. I am wearing a 

different kind of hat now. I thought it would 

look good with the flat car I am riding on. Do 

you think so? The last state I was in was 

Nebraska and Iowa and Nebraska are close 

together. Iowa does grow corn but the state is 

actually called the

   Hawkeye State. It got it's name from some 

    Indian tribes. 

We are going by a field of corn. It really looks 

good. I wish the engineer would stop and I 

could get some corn. that would be yummy. 

But he says we have to get to Mount Pleasant 

Iowa because there is an old threshers steam 

engine and threshers day. We are carrying coal. 

for the steam engine.

Des Moines Iowa. 

Capitol of Iowa

The capitol of Iowa is Des Moines. The capitol 

building had a gold dome that is 275 feet and is 

23 carrot gold. Now if that was real carrots I 

would love it.

A true blue water lake that is crystal clear. 

                       Okobosi City in Iowa.             

That water really tastes good. I was needing a 

good drink          of water. yummm. 

  Now I am back on the train. The engineer said 

we are going to Winter set Iowa,to see the 

place that John Wayne the actor was born. and 

t     the engineer said there is a John Wayne  

    festival too.

                      Those leaves 

                       sure look good but I

              better not eat them. I

       would get into troublo.

I looked in my book and found that the state 

tree is the oak tree, The flower is the wild rose. 

I don't think it would be good to eat. It would 

be stickery. The bird is the eastern gold finch.  

Oh well I won't bother any of those.
