Heartland Acres

Our visit to Heartland Acres...







Emily is using an old timey corn sheller. This thing was fun to use and I think we could've just shelled corn the whole time. It's tempting to throw other things into it to see what would happen...



Yup, that is a creepy mannequin:


Iowa in the early days. There were some towns on the map that no longer exist. Ivanhoe?


Music for everyone! A nifty old jukebox that still works surprisingly well. I like the hum and soft crackle of the tubes when it warms up.


Last stop was the one-room schoolhouse. There was a petting zoo, too, but a storm was moving in quickly, so we didn't spend much time there.
