Iowa doesn't have the glitz and glimmer of Hollywood, but there have apparently been a large number of Hollywood and sport's finest who have come up from our very own state. From Superman himself (times 2!) to major players in the late night television world- Iowa is the original home of s…

Another weekend in Iowa in the books! This past weekend was as relaxing and chill as it could be. I didn't hit up the bars, but I did hit up the second most exclusive place in the Cedar Valley...Johnny Mark's house.
So, from seeing Johnny's crazy cats to a brisk walk by the riverfront…

Vermont Senator and former Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders is making news, and it has nothing to do with politics. While our country is a bit divided right now; at least we can unite for some funny memes about one of the most colorful characters in politics.

There have been countless performances on this au…

It's always fun to see what weird and random holiday it is. January 19, 2021 is National Pop Corn Day. In honor of one of the best snacks the three of us on 'Marks In The Morning' had to play a fun game.
Popcorn and Iowa's history is slightly intertwined...

Last weekend I spent my days off taking in all of the sights of the Cedar Valley with my mom. When this past Friday hit I realized that this would be my first solo weekend in a LONG time. So, I decided to do some solo exploring/eating/walking...
