Many people from Keokuk thinks that the town we live in isn’t that great. You would always hear stories of how someone’s neighbors got arrested with meth. However, I think Keokuk is a great town to live in and I wished that other people would share the same opinion.

What’s Happening Now: State of Euphoria. By: Kasidi Mericle In the northwestern part of Euphoria, you will see that the skies are mostly 100% clear.

sacrifice is not the answer. The story starts off with the town gathering at the field they do evry year for one special day. Mr. Summers, the leader of this gathering, calls up people. And the only person that pulls the paper with a dot on it, well, it could end up bad or good.

It’s been missed before. Don’t feel bad if you do it too; there’s a sign that points out Whitewater State Park, but not the towns that surround it. It’s okay. It’s a small place surrounded by cornfields. It's cozy. I mean, if you like the small town feel, Altura is the place to be! I bet if you stood on one end of Main Street, you could spit into the farthest yard on the other end. Altura is in a sort-of funny spot. It's only 11 miles from the heart of Winona County and 13 from the fairgrounds, yet
I grew up in a small town that does not have much of a diverse culture. There is a small community base where everyone knows everyone. We are just like any other city just significantly smaller; we have good parts of town, bad parts of town, grocery stores, and a restaurant here and there.
