Dropping in at Our Lady of the Mississippi Abbey

One of the Register's 100 Places in Iowa, Our Lady of the Mississippi is set on a bluff overlooking the river valley a few miles south of Dubuque. Besides the obvious service in their faith, the nuns are also known for an item on the list of 100 Things You Must Eat, Trappistine Creamy Caramels. Linda and I have found them in shops in Dubuque in the past but it was nice to stop at the monastery.
