In case the reunion gets boring I want to know what's interesting in Iowa other than coonman 220. Last edited by run; 02/28/24 01:14 PM. wanna be goat farmer.

Yellow River state forest and Pike's Peak are a couple good options. www.berniesbearcamp.com https://www.youtube.com/user/BowhuntingRoad/about

The Music Man Square is there, with things pertaining to Meredith Wilson. There are Frank Lloyd Wright buildings to see if you are in to that kind of thing. Go a little further west of Mason City and there is Clear Lake. You can check out the famous Surf Ballroom. North of CL is a marker where the Buddy Holly plane crash was. Don't forget to check out Charles City too, since you will be close to that as well. Life Member: ITA, IBA & NRA. Member of SA, MTA, FTA & NTA

Maybe the Mason City Chamber of Commerce or Visitors Center has information that might interest you then. I know there are several buildings of his design in town. Good luck!

If you make it down we will feed you and we have some nice demos. Looks like 1.5 hours south of Floyd. Wolf Creek park Beaman IA will show on google maps if you want directions.
