A Midwest Roadtrip
This past weekend my husband and I took a little Midwest road trip. Our main destination was St. Louis, Missouri, but we gave ourselves a few days to get there and a few days to make our way home. Looking back, I think the journey was just as memorable as the destination. We traveled through […]

Music Man
The Soundtrack of Mason City
There’s a phrase from The Music Man that always makes me smile: “You’ve got trouble…” – and sometimes it feels like that’s how some people react when they hear, once again, about music in our town. I get it. When something is talked about often, it can start to feel overplayed. The references to Meredith […]

Sheffield
From Vacant to Vibrant; The Power of Restoration
Last week I found myself in Sheffield, Iowa, and like always, I had to stop at one of my favorite places: Block 10, another Locally Grown; Locally Owned business! There are so many reasons I love it.
