Yes, it sounded like him, but I was not sure. Been away for too long!MC looks like John Walters, probably. You'd know him if you listen to any Cyclone sports on the radio.

Oy vey! Hmmmm, I need to check. Thanks.You should have received a years worth of RE taxes, at least, when you bought the house.

You're welcome.
The weather is amazing May and early June. July and August into September is worse than Florida. Autumn is the best weather in the world IMO, then get ready for winter lolz.
Des Moines is pretty cool for such a small city. I'm starting to get partial to northern Virginia, especially near DC. I'm flying out of Dulles tomorrow morning actually. Going to Grand Forks, ND of all places after being in Syracuse or a week. I've seen a ton of great cities and Des Moines still has it's special place for me.Lived in DSM for 5 years now and it has felt like home since day 1. I’ve found some of my favorite spots amongst food and entertainment are:
Simon Estes amphitheater
Western gateway/sculpture park (plus all the festivals there)
Des Moines Art Center (it’s free and check out the rose gardens outside)
Botanical gardens (check out the tulips in the outdoor garden spring)
Bubba (nice yet affordable night out with good drinks)
The Angry Goldfish
Barrata’s at the State Historical Society (it’s a gem for lunch)
B&B grocery (if I need a good cut of meat, this is the place)
Throw in principal park, the farmers market, the Well, and all the great breweries, why would u want to live anywhere else?
Have you ever been to Boise? I have a few friends that live there and they absolutely love it. It seems kind of like Des Moines in the mountains.Des Moines is pretty cool for such a small city.

No but it's on my list. Estes Park is one of favorite places in the world if you ever are looking for a small mountain get away. In Florida I like Tampa, and I really like north central Florida. If you're going to Myrtle Beach stay in a town just south of there called Murrells Inlet. I couldn't believe how small town and laid back it felt compared to rest of the southern ocean fronts I've been to.Have you ever been to Boise?

I'm going to move out West one of these days. My home away from home is Seattle, but I really don't want to pay to live in that area. I'd like to stay in a medium sized city. Chico or Redding seem about perfect.No but it's on my list. Estes Park is one of favorite places in the world if you ever are looking for a small mountain get away.

Your comment made me do a deep dive into Boise. That city looks awesome. Mountains are pretty, people are probably alright. Would have been a fun college town, no Ames, but still lol.Have you ever been to Boise? I have a few friends that live there and they absolutely love it.

Where are you at? I lived in Reston for a bit, but it couldn't beat Des Moines so I moved back.Des Moines is pretty cool for such a small city.

I like Fairfax area. Richmond is great. I just love the DC area. So many sports and places to go and do things. Nice weather. Mountains and ocean within an hour. It's perfect.Where are you at? I lived in Reston for a bit, but it couldn't beat Des Moines so I moved back.
4.5 months in Des Moines, and a small complaint...The 1:00 am train rolled through downtown and woke me up! Normally, I sleep through the trains, but this one was extra loud with his horns, and I cannot get back to sleep. Ugh
