The cool‚ crisp breeze slices through the humid atmosphere. The wind-chimes sing their songs of sharp‚ staccato notes. The forest seemingly forever expands over the flat land of Louisiana.

Of all the places I have been so far in life‚ I have to say Iowa is by far my most favorite place. It’s where I was born and bred and I try to make it a point to go back and visit at least once a year.
