While we were in Nathrop, Colorado we met Allen and Vicki from Iowa.  We mentioned that we were heading to Iowa.  Turns out they live 12 miles from Howell Station Campground.
They returned home from Colorado in time for us to be able to have lunch with them at George's on the Square before we left town.
