Atlantic, Iowa - Exploring My Childhood Home Town

Taking a walk down memory lane. I called Atlantic, Iowa my home from 1987 - 1996 where most of my fondest childhood memories are. I was one when my parents moved there and we left in 1996 when I was almost 10, moving to Spirit Lake, Iowa where I would later attend and graduate high school at.

It's been over 10 years since I've visited Atlantic, a quaint midwest town located just off I-80 half way between Omaha, NE and Des Moines, IA. So I decided to share stories from my past and take you on a tour of my childhood home town!

Atlantic is also known as the Coca-Cola Capital of Iowa, there's a large coca-cola bottling company in town and they also celebrate Coca-Cola Days with a soda themed parade.
