Another Opportunity - Where is Billy Bruce??





Nobody recognized the Hispanic Celebration at Visitation Catholic Church - E 9th & University in Des Moines! Actually they have changed the name of the church it's now Our Lady of The Americas Parish. And the dancers were dressed as Mayan Indians (I think), not Native Americans. (several people guessed Tama).


Our road trip this week took us to this small store in Iowa. The store is called Katy-Dids. We met Katy - she's in the picture with Bill. The store carries groceries, liquor and hardware items! Her t-shirt said "If we don't have it, you don't need it!" We asked about the store name. We were told by Kathy, a.k.a. Katy, that she had worked at this store for 20 years when the owners decided to retire. Instead of allowing the only store in town to close, Katy decided to buy it! Katy had brothers growing up, when anything went wrong - they always reported "Katy Did It!" So finally she said - Katy Did It! and the store has been hers for the last 10 years.
Does anyone know what town is the home of Katy Dids? First right answer gets the reward!
