I've lived all my life in a sheltered town in Central Iowa. I am greatful that my family has been able to do extensive traveling throughout my life. Our travels have taught me alot about my country and the people in it. I'm fortunate to have two happily married parents who work hard to give the best to their three daughters.
Story City has a population of aobut three thousand.
Most of the people are Norwegian, German, or, like me, a combination of the two. Almost everyone knows everyone. If someone doesn't know you, they will most likely know you parents or grandparents. It's sorta nice to have an entire community of peole who know and care about you. There are times however when this is not so nice.
