@blakealbers I'm Spencer Pratt's biggest fan in Iowa. Have been following him since his house burned down and cheer so loud for every video he posts. LOVE TO SEE IT.

@MNelson_ISU Is the super dog cart….in your driveway?

@RadarZ06 @MarkNel1026 Thanks Mick!!! Mark and I were able to buy a cow out of one of my Mill Bar heifers from back in the day on my dad’s dispersal 💚

[Melissa Keyes Nelson @MelNelKeyes]

@FAKEBOBVP @MarkNel1026 lol one must look extra fancy in the feed wagon 😝 I’m grateful he goes along with my antics 🤩

@JDScholten Not prospering from what I have seen. My sister lives and farms in rural central Illinois and big business and the lack of agricultural diversity have flattened much of any economic prosperity. I want Iowa’s economy to grow but not in the direction of what I’ve seen of IL please!

[Melissa Keyes Nelson @MelNelKeyes]

@JDScholten I’m certainly not here to agree with Randy or even necessarily to argue with you JD but I have spent some time in rural Illinois and their economic landscape is frightening to me. I’m not sure what metrics the best/worst list or you are using but small town Illinois is not …1/2

Matt Campbell buys an entire page in the Des Moines Register to say thank you and goodbye to Iowa State.

@courtlee05 ���� I think I would simply throw my phone in the trash. I am so sorry 😓

“AI is going to take over the world.”

Also AI: Without asking, creates and highlights a photo album of my trip home in August 2024 showcasing all the photos I took the week my mom DIED; including, but not limited to, photos of her casket 🤪🤪

Read the room, Apple 🤣

@VanceCrowe The first one we read was Old Yeller and then we moved into Hank the Cowdog. Hank is the best.

@koinzangreg It's always a bit sad to me to watch those guys and gals get older and not be replaced with younger folks. In one of the parades we watched recently the elderly color guard was sitting on lawn chairs on a pull behind trailer with their flags 🥲
