Pella is an adorable town about 40 miles southeast of Des Moines, IA. It has worked at maintaining (or creating) the image of a Dutch town. Most of the architecture is smugly American, but it does have a couple of windmills and some buildings that have a touch of Nederland in them. And there are flowers everywhere.
Pella would be idyllic, but for its horrific problem with street gangs. It is hard to feel safe on the streets, even in broad daylight.

We are a photogenic group - except Beth - it's a pretty good picture of her. No wonder people stared.
I realy think this is a good picture. I can't believe this is what we looked like. The only problem is Mac you are not in it!!
Anonymous has to be Beth. No one else could possibly think this was a good picture!
