Oskaloosa used to be a shopping center when I was younger????? Had friends in Charitan and Ottumwa. Have even gone to Ottumwa to catch the train to CA. You are all in my old stomping grounds. It would be nice to go back and meet some of you, if that can be arranged. Also go through Ottumwa on my way to Columbia, MO where one of my boys lives. Welcome to the board. Marge L.
