Lucky you or should I say unlucky wallet!! You've got Country Threads in your backyard! How do you resist the temptation? And you have several others close by.

Hi everyone! I'm in Muscatine, IA - close to 4 years now. Anyone close to Muscatine? Just saw where WalMartGranny is from Muscatine. Cool.

Hello fellow Iowans. I was born in Algona, IA. Grew up in Golden, Colorado, moved back to Algona, went to college in Emmetsburg ( ILCC), then lived in Mason City, Clear Lake, Cherokee and now back to Algona.(have come full circle back to my roots) I know where a lot of your locations are from my travels and have a daughter that lives in Norway, IA near Cedar Rapids. Iowa is a great place to live! :D
