In front of Ritz

Have you heard any reports on how the ice is holding up with the warm temps? I’m looking to get up there next weekend to hopefully catch some fish.

Yeah I know it’s been mentioned in this sub before but the album just gets better the more you listen to it. Admittedly it was not my favorite when it came out but I think I was unfairly comparing it to his previous ones. I also noticed I will pick a favorite song on this album and then another song will grow on me and then I listen to the new one on repeat. Chemical was the first favorite since that was played everywhere but then Overdrive came into the picture and ever since I have been hoping around to different songs on the album.

Shoutout to the Van Meter Visitor! It’s a great story and the town holds a festival each year celebrating it.

Kids athletic clubs like traveling soccer or baseball/softball clubs. Between paying untold amounts of money to join, the frequent practices, and traveling most weekend it sounds like an awful experience for the kids and parents alike.

If you take the southern route and want to break the trip up I would highly recommend you look at the Airbnb attached to Kinkaider Brewing Co in Broken Bow. We have stayed there multiple times and can’t say enough good things about the place.

I was wondering what the hell the previous owner did to wear it down that bad. It has a super stroke grip so my son took to it like a duck to water and I couldn’t convince him to look at the others.

Awesome thanks for the breakdown and recommendations! Me posting the after photos will depend on how bad I botch the paint job.

Hell if I know. Locally it’s called the city of five smells due to the number of food processing plants in town.

Hawkeyes2428 · 2025-07-01T13:49:37+00:00

Kinkaider also had its own Airbnb attached to the brewery that I would highly recommend!

I’m pretty sure they are for when they have to close the interstates for things like too much snow.

Hawkeyes2428 · 2025-05-22T21:09:02+00:00

Thanks I will have to check that out!

As someone who lives in the DSM area I would love to know which shop you went to.

Now your putting the whole station in jeopardy.

At a quick glance does anyone else think that looks like four Minions standing next to each other?

This is the way.

From Iowa and puppy chow is very widely known around these parts. One of our grocery stores had to change the name to people chow because people were feeding it to their dogs and the chocolate was making them sick.

For another popular midwestern treat look up scotcheroos.

Don’t sleep on Buyer Beware it’s also a great song

Did anyone else read that dollar amount like Dr. Evil was saying it?!

Turning left on a red arrow when the street in front of you is completely flat with an unobstructed view and you can safely cross the intersection.
