I've always wanted to use that line but never had the perfect chance until now. One of my high school friends from Chicago came to town to help celebrate the end of my singleness. It was her first time in Iowa. We had a big day planned for Saturday so Friday night was pretty chill. I took her to Star Bar and the best dive bar in town: Carl's. It's far and few between when my friends are able to come visit me. As such, I like to try to impress them with all the fine offerings of DSM. That's exactly why we hit up Carl's. Brittany was surprised again and again by how cheap her bill was. So she asked the innocent question, "Where am I?" And the best answer I had, "It's not heaven; it's Iowa." BAM
What a great Iowa adventure I had this past weekend - thanks for showing me the lovely city of Des Moines and all it has to offer... or at least all we could fit in during 2 days ;) I'm glad I got to be part of you using that phrase, haha... I am STILL in shock at how cheap everything was!!
