I - O - WA.
I think they should have spelled it IOA. Then they would have 3 letters and 3 syllables, but I digress.
Stephen should head to Iowa today. Most of the politicians have moved on, so it won't be quite as windy. There's lots to see besides the corn in Iowa. Biking, Festivals, Golf, Wine and Beer, State Parks, Bed and Breakfasts, Campgrounds, the list is nearly endless. Find out all about those things to do at Travel Iowa's website. There's many famous Iowans that you've probably heard of - President Herbert Hoover, Carrie Chapman Catt, Grant Wood, John Wayne, Ashton Kutcher, Elijah Wood, Donna Reed, Glenn Miller, and Meredith Wilson. And not a single one of them was a farmer who grew corn. So, yes, more really happens in Iowa besides corn growing.
And there's history to find out about. Effigy Mounds National Monument is located in northeast Iowa as is the Silos and Smokestacks National Heritage Area. Stephen can find out everything he ever wanted to know about Herbert Hoover at the Hoover Library and Museum in West Branch.
He could visit the capital of Iowa, Des Moines for a ton of stuff to do. He should look at the official website of the City of Des Moines and see the cute photo of a small white dog catching a red frisbee. Yep, it's about the Dog Park. Stephen knows all about dog parks.
Other fun, scenic, quaint or exciting towns to visit include Dubuque, Davenport, Cedar Rapids, Waterloo, and Decorah.
So, Stephen, pack that backpack and head back to Iowa.
