Time to Leave Des Moines





The city of Fort Des Moines is where I live and the beginning of our trip. Des Moines was founded on the date of September 22, 1851. Six years later it was shortened to what is now known as "Des Moines." Des Moines' land has an area of 77.2 sq. mi. 1.5 sq. mi. of it is water. Des Moines is a major city for the insurance industry, financial services, and publishing businesses. Well, the bus is about to leave, got to go.
