On the Trail in Iowa. Started in 2000 Art Expeditions began to travel the route of Lewis and Clark. Our team of Art Explorers (Our family) set out to capture and document the different communities and landscapes along the route. Goals:
The following are selections from our adventures in Iowa with this
project. |

Notes: Our journey began at the mouth of the
Missouri River on the Mighty Mississippi. After the Missouri and
Kansas
landscapes, Iowa displayed a new relationship with the river. The
bends and turns were more gradual and the terrain was flat that buffered its
banks. All held under the watchful eye of the Loess Hills. The
landscape and river have stood the test of time as roadways and railroads
follow their initial route. The monument to Sgt. Floyd, built to honor
the one lost life on the Expedition, causes reflection on much more. Along
with the success and impact of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, it also
overlooks Iowa's historical relationship with the Missouri River and
transportation.
