Pyramids are in Iowa?

[LtRaczack]

I really have to stop watching YouTube videos before games. I never knew about this that some history fanatic decided to build pyramids to be buried in right before World War 2 in Avery near Ottumwa.

The good part starts at 8:55:

Was rented to windmill folks that kinda trashed it I heard. White carpet but was black with mud when done.

What are "windmill folks???"

I've been aware of the SE Iowa pyramids for a long time, never been. Would like to, but have to be passing thru. Not quite cool enough to make a scheduled trip.

What are "windmill folks???"

People who put up all the electrical windmills in the area.

What's weird about an old white guy wearing a fez, driving a mini car in a pack with other old white guys and asking kids if they want some candy.....

Shrine is not my thing but it's probably one of last organizations that voluntary give for the better good. The Shriners hospital is wonderful. They appear to be dying out. Newer generations just wait for government to pick up slack.

Do you have a lawn I should get off?

Turns out that the guy who built them as his final resting place was buried somewhere else. Yet another pyramid scheme gone awry...

No idea what free Mason means but hope he gets out of jail soon.
