So never been to Mexico why are Coatimundi so popular? They look like a cross between a fox and a raccoon to me.

Just confirming I still have a crush on Chelsea Poppens.

Do you want to be introduced?

Meow friend is having a kitten!

We are having a duck! For those that are not FB friends my wife is pregnant. On Friday night LittleWx was talking to baby and then he put his ear on her belly so we asked what baby said. His response...."quack quack quack".

Not exactly sure.
State track hotel options. Either $200+ for a room or $60. Will only sleep and not sure if one or two nights. Just want a crash place, but bed bugs and getting mugged or so concern me with cheap rooms. Are there bad hotels in Des Moines?

I'm cheap and The 200 may make me drive.

you must ask him what you should name the baby duck. I am sure that will be entertaining.

There were a few. Couple that looked to be out by living history farms. A couple others that I would place by valley West Mall and Merle hay.
I think the Merle Hay ones can be hit or miss, so I would read a lot of reviews on those, but I don't know about the other areas. Granted, it's now been 6 years since I was in high school

BC I stayed out at the Econolodge out in Urbandale last summer, it's dated and old but pretty clean, it wasn't my favorite place but it was cheap. If you are a Farm Bureau member you can usually pick up an extra discount. The pool isn't as big as they make it look in the picture. I thought it was safe enough and didn't get any bedbug bites or bring any home.
