"Iowa Supreme Court Chamber"



"Iowa Supreme Court Chamber"
Des Moines, Iowa
Montana Thanksgiving 2015

That is Katie in the background.  
The Chamber is stunning. The judges' bench is carved mahogany.
The Iowa Supreme Court no longer meets here.  They have moved to the Judicial Building of the Capitol complex.  The chamber is now utilized as a committee room for the House of Representatives.

"Free Water and Five Cent Coffee"



"Free Water and Five Cent Coffee"
Wall Drug, South Dakota
Montana Thanksgiving 2015
5"x7" original watercolor
140 lbs. cold pressed paper
Arches Bright white

Here we are at Wall Drug for our free ice water and five cent coffee. 
We each got a donut and that brought the cost of our snack to about $3.00.
The donuts are pretty good.  Plain cake donuts that are made on the premises. 
It is the Sunday after Thanksgiving and the snow is piling up outside. 
The restaurant seats 520 people.  We were the only two people there.
