I'm not from there, but I visited there once as a child.

All I remember is that it was humid.

HUGS,

Hi Randy,

I used to travel Iowa extensively while working with the 142 Independent Telephone Companies there.  I have been through even the most rural countryside.  While I like Des Moines, I think that my favorite town there is Iowa City, what with the college and all.

I was in an L.A. beach front cafe once that was themed after a car repair garage in Iowa.  The waitress carried a tire guage and offered to test my tires.  I suggested that she and my friend, two corn fed Iowa youths get together and talk shop while I serviced the car. Our waitress saw Iowa once from 3,000 feet.  The vehicle service offer was a coupon from the cafe and the work had to be done in Earl's Garage in Iowa.  Have the best day
