    An original Iowan here, I must warn you about going to anywhere in Iowa. First, they are usually extremely nice people (unless they are Iowa State Fans). Since it's on 218, it's pretty safe you're in Hawkeye country.
    Second, if you love country side and country life, you'll love Iowa.
    Third, if they actually have an organized event, check it out before hand, check other sites to see what there is actually to do. The land there is flat and you could fall asleep at the wheel anygivin time, so you don't want to waste a trip for something that could cause you to leave soon after arriving. Best not to drive when sleepy in Iowa.

    Is this heaven, no it's Iowa!

    As the descendant of a long line of "Iowa Scots", all I can say is*...

    Amen, Padre!

    *Except for the comments about ISU. At least you didn't go after UNI!

    You really ought to give Iowa a try!
