We left Saturday morning and meandered our way east. Our first stop - the outlet mall in Williamsburg. It was disappointing. Shocking, right? It could have had something to do with the fact that I just wasn't excited about shopping. Combined with the fact that I didn't really find any good deals. It was my first experience though, so I'm willing to give it another try.
As we reached Iowa City, Ryan mentioned the Iowa Firefighters Memorial. I didn't know such a thing existed. So of course we had to stop. There was a small welcome center with patches from departments all over the state. Our two home towns happened to be right to the first fire department Ryan joined.
There was a large wall devoted to those that served on a fire department. A smaller one was entitled "For those who gave the ultimate sacrifice".
If you haven't visited, you should. But I'd recommend waiting until the spring.
