Have you been to Iowa?! 🌾 (ad) We recently visited @traveliowa and experienced SO many unexpected gems in📍Le Mars and📍 O’Brien County which are about 3 hours away from the Twin Cities 🚗 Below are some of the surprises we uncovered during our weekend:

🚙 There’s a HUGE collection of trucks, buses and cars from the 1800’s and 1900’s at Yesterday’s Memories. My favorite was the Yellowstone bus 🚌 from the 1920’s. That was a surprise and so fun to see!

🍻 Uncovering a craft brewery and delicious flights @wiseibrew 

🌳 State Parks are free! We loved walking around Mill Creek State Park

🦬 Did you know there are bison in Iowa?! We saw some from a distance at Prairie Heritage Center

🖼️ Touring Bogenreif Studios with owner Mark and learning about his world renown stained and bevel glass studio. Truly an unexpected gem in the middle of Iowa!

🍔 Checking out fun food spots like Bob’s Drive In, Archie’s and Jay’s

☕️ Grabbing coffee and breakfast from GroundeD in Hartley - we learned the community has the BEST hospitality!

🏨 Staying in super affordable boutique accommodations including Inn on Central and a grain bin cabin!!

Thank you for a fantastic weekend uncovering fun gems!
