Ummm are you talking in IA? You must be riding back and forth because there no where near 150 miles between Ankeny, IA and Ames, IA more like about 25 miles between them.

Your right I was assuming but sounded funny when you posted and I knew how close the towns were! LOL That is the scenic way for sure! LOL Lots of cornfields to look at.

Big money in ice diving if he wants! That might help take the chill out of it.

Sure looks like it wants to rain out there but now not supposed to see any until this evening. Just this morning we were supposed to get rain this afternoon. How can they possibly all be so bad at the weather predictions? It shouldn't surprise me after all these years but it does.
