Places Work Takes Me: Des Moines





I just realized that I took these pics back in June, but never posted them. The good people of Des Moines have every right to be upset over my negligence.


Des Moines is probably one of the biggest "small" cities around. It has a big city feel to it, but it's actually much smaller than one would think (around 500k people). The city is pretty easy to navigate and get around. There's not much nightlife downtown to speak of, but then I'm not a big nightlife guy anyways. Scenery wise, Des Moines has an attractive skyline and scenery along the Des Moines river that runs through it.


We had an event at Principal Park which is downtown along the river.


My favorite place to eat is a place called Mojo's in Johnston, a northwestern suburb. They have some amazing Almond crusted chicken fingers that are the best chicken tenders one could ever possibly eat. The entre's change regulary, but it's hard to go wrong with anything you order here.
