Oh yes the Tornado is still there - with a couple of more roller coasters now. They just opened a huge water park inside the park this year!

I'm from Iowa, born and raised. Can't really imagine living somewhere else. Nice to know there are so many of us here.

I'm originally from Iowa, but married a Air Force career man and we still consider Des Moines,Iowa our home. Haven't lived there for 48 years but go home every year to visit.

I grew up in Spencer, then Cedar Rapids. My folks are still there, and DH and I have lived in CR for several years. But his job moved us to Nebraska.

Iowa is a great place to live.

I'm from NE Iowa! Lived here all my life and still live only 30 miles from where I grew up! Wouldn't live anywhere else! Love the 4 seasons!
