Duesey Days

It is Duesey Days in our little town today. This is the home of the men who invented the Duesenburg Automobile. Their little shop was on main street for many years until just a few years ago, it got so old and bad, they had to tear it down. But every year they still have a celebration with a parade this morning and family fun in the park for all. Lots of things for the kids to do and lots of food to eat including turkey legs and funnel cakes. There are many activities including crowning the little Duesey Day Queen last night. I don't think those running for it are more than about 8 years old. She will ride in the Parade this morning as Royalty. It is cloudy now but it should clear up, we hope.

Duesey Days

It's Duesey Days in our little town this weekend. This where the Duesenberg brothers built the first Duesenberg car. At least it is going to be cooler this weekend. We are very thankful for that. They don't have enough stuff for kids like other towns. They need to have rides for the older ones. There will be plenty of food to go around tough.
