Yeah, it is about 2.5 hours. Grinnell is almost half way between Des Moines and IA City. Nice that DSM, IA City, Cedar Rapids, Waterloo are all about an hour away.

Mom lives in Estherville and she had the kids since Christmas. MC and Ft Dodge are both about half way. She likes MC better for the shopping.

I couldn't covince everyone that we needed a wing fix on Tuesday.

I liked it. I have been to one of them in Cedar Rapids and there is one in Champaign, IL near where I stay when I visit the Factory in Rantoul, IL. Blazin are good for a while.

I'm only about 3 mins away from one on my side of town. My uncle manages the other one across town. Maybe I could talk to him about a group rate for further get togethers.

There is one in West Des Moines now, too. Over by Jordan Creek. Haven't tried that one yet. The one on the West side of CR was good the last time I was there.
