Earlier this month when we were in Iowa we visited the town of Pella - yes, Pella windows are made there.  There is a town ordinance that all the town buildings are suppose to have a Dutch Facade.  There is also a working windmill downtown Pella where they make flour that is used in local bakeries.  Walk with me on the tour of the windmill.
