Noah and I left Junction City around 8:30 a.m., making a few stops before our lunchtime arrival in the Page County town of Coin. There we met Seth, who lives in the town’s only apartment building and works in nearby Clarinda.

The coin overpass attracts tens of visitors each year.
We received the VIP tour of Coin, passing through downtown, the community center, three parks, and old school. Noah went down nearly 70% of the town’s slides.

The drive home included a quick stop in Villisca and a drive through Nodaway to document the now-closed post office. We arrived in Ankeny around 5:15 p.m.
