Among Amy's many likes, soda fountain beverages have to rank near the top, in particular Diet Coke. I quickly learned early on in our relationship that there is a difference between cans or bottles of soda and the kind you get straight from the tap at your local gas station or restaurant.
Fortunately Ames has an abundance of gas stations, and the number only seems to be increasing. Just recently the local HyVee grocery store opened a couple of their own gas stations near their main stores, and they have some deluxe soda fountain action going on. Every mainstream soda, plus a few others, crushed and cubed ice, flavor shots, and mix-and-match recipes with names (like "One Love" which consists of Mountain Dew, one shot lemon, two shots lime).
So we may as well add easy access to gas station fountain soda as another reason we're happy to be back in Ames. I personally get more excited about the roller dogs, though. Mmmmm, cheddar franks!
