You know you’re from Iowa when you listen to the weather report before getting dressed in the morning.

I don’t need a coat—I’m from Iowa.

Oh, the weather outside can bite me,
And my car won’t start to spite me,
And I can’t feel any of my toes.
Winter snows, Winter snows, Winter snows.

Giving Thanks

I’m thankful for a pair of shoes that feel really good on my feet; I like my shoes. I’m thankful for the birds; I feel like they’re singing just for me when I get up in the morning… Saying, ‘Good morning, John. You made it, John.’ I’m thankful for the sea breeze that feels so good right now, and the scent of jasmine when the sun starts going down. I’m thankful… ~Johnny Cash
