Iowa photo thread
Would anyone be willing to post some of their photos of Iowa? I don't have any recent ones, but I will look for some old ones if I have them. Old and recent would be great!

I'll help start this out with a few I've taken. These are in rural Black Hawk County:
Just after a strong thunderstorm.
A row of Black Willows near some timber.
A quiet bridge over the Wapsi on a rainy day.
Kind of a drabby picture, but I'm proud of it anyway. lol.
Wouldn't be right without a winter picture. 
---> I may add some more later after more people post!

Here's some pictures I took around Iowa City this summer. I have a few more of different things that I might post later on as well. I kinda like that drabby one, metro! 
On the Sycamore Greenway bike trail south of Iowa City.
A stoplight and intersection waiting for houses to be built around it, south of Iowa City.
At the Solon Beef Days last summer. |

3rd attempt to post this
This is a store called Dlask that was on Ellis Blvd., in Cedar Rapids. I used to go here A LOT in the 1970's. My older brothers used to bribe me into going there for them. They would say, "i will buy you a candy bar if you go". Of course I would say "OK". Then they would give me all the money in pennies. They were too embarrassed to go themselves with all those pennies . And the cashier ladies weren't too happy to see me either because the knew they would have to count all those pennies too . lol

This picure was taken in 1999. Dlask was torn down and this replaced it. The neighborhood looks much better now.
