Butler County
Allison was very excited to find a town named after her. Too bad about the courthouse though.
Mitchell County
Mitchell county recently rebuild their courthouse but kept the top of the old one. They also had a fantastic movie theatre.

| They actually have a tombstone for the old courthouse |

| Hey counties, if you have to rebuild at least do it right like Mitchell |
 |
| This is an architectural marvel (I'm serious) |

Woodbury County
Sioux City in Woodbury County is home to what is one of my favorite courthouses. Done in the Prairie style it is a national historic landmark. White a little baroque for prairie style the stonework is amazing. We also visited the Sergeant Floyd Monument in honor of Charles Floyd who died while on expedition with Lewis and Clark.

| A little homoerotic for Steve King's district don't you think? |

Calhoun County
Honestly there wasn't much going on in Calhoun county seat Rockwell City when we visited. It does contain a Carnegie Library which is kind of cool. Andrew Carnegie would build these for any town that provided the land and people to staff them. I'm not sure if it's still operational.
Greene County
Jefferson in Greene County has this cool tower. Unfortunately it wasn't open when we were there.
