This weekend is the Covered Bridges Festival in Madison County, Iowa. It’s always held the first weekend in October and, true to this transitional month, the weather can be unpredictable. It doesn’t matter if the temperatures lollygag in the 80s and impatiens are still in full bloom, if snow and sleet fall on the displays of pumpkins and hay bales in the vendors’ booths around the town square, or if the trees forget it’s autumn and remain a stubborn green. The festival goes on.
Peace from Madison County
