it's weird when people don't know the capital of your state then you remember you probably don't know the capital of theirs

the first capital in Iowa was actually Burlington, but at that time, Iowa was part of the Wisconsin territory, which made Burlington a territorial capital.

Iowa brings to mind the first presidential caucus, dairy, and the great and classic musical The Music Man

I had a wonderful grandma. She played games with me when I was young to teach me state capitals and the locations of the states. Made learning fun. it's interesting to know the origins of the capitals.
