    Know your plan of attack on how to get to the Brass Armadillo (terrible Interstate 80/35 access). Once there, you're greeted with the widest selection of antiques and collectables in central Iowa.

    I love that they have hundreds of 100+ year old photographs for cheap prices.

    Inhale the fine powder of decades of other people's filth. Breathe it deep into your lungs.

    If you can, avoid dealing with management. They can be wily and unscrupulous.
