    In Des Moines, Iowa - Anything to do here?

    Hey guys,

    I'm in Downtown Des Moines for a few days, I have some parts coming from Patrick at BMA.

    I'll be here until saturday morning.

    Any suggestions for resturants, sights and a place to go on a friday night would be helpful!

    Thanks,

    I like Des Moines. My sister went to Iowa State, so I was in Ames more then Des Moines though. If you are young, I'd just head over to Ames and go out to the bars there. There is a really good steak house there, but I can't remember the name, so I'm not much help I guess.

            I was jus looking for a few suggestions, cus most of the time i end up in crappy resturants when i try to just find my own.

            The locals always know better.

              All I know of Des Moines is from the airport to Ames. Been there 3-4 times.

              Ames seemed like a typical college town. Not too bad.

              From what I saw of Des Moines proper, it looked sleepy.

                  Kill yourself? That might ease the pain?

                      With the thread full of upset people waiting for sway bars and whatnot, I bet you could make money for this one though...

                        Call me.

                        I basically live in Ankeny and can show you around if you want.

                        Also, I need help with my car.

                        Did I mention that I need help with car?

                        There's some stuff to do but not a whole lot. I think there might be some concerts going on. Ames is more of a college town that is usually constantly buzzing.

                        Oh, and I need help with my car.
