DMC Mid West and american pickers

Monday 29th July 2013
Today we drove from Chicago to Le Claire at Iowa via Crystal Lake.  On the way we stopped off at DMC Midwest to say hi and to have a look around the shop.  This was the last DMC dealer that we had to visit in the USA and we have now met and looked around all of the shops.  From there we headed for Le Claire to stop off at the home town of the American Pickers, Mike and Frank.  The shop is exactly how it looks on TV but Danielle does not work there.  Mike and Frank were also not there as they were out filming the show.  The town of Le Claire is pretty good with a nice setting right on the bank of the Mississippi river.  Tomorrow we head to St Louis to see the arch.
