It was a 3 hour drive from southern Iowa back to Gowrie. About 15 miles from there is the town of Boxholm, a Swedish settlement - and still many Swedes still around the area. It was named after the town of Boxholm in Sweden. (However Boxholm, IA is quite a bit smaller)
Rachael, Roxanne, and Darlene
The Eklund side of Roxanne's family originates from Boxholm Sweden- a big hello to all our friends and family in Sweden!
Rachael, Kris and Molly (cousin) all arrived back at Grandma's place. Retirement apartments don't accommodate large crowds so we set up a tent for extra sleep space.
Sunset in Gowrie. Wednesday night July 3.
