When I was up there, I had a hangar over at C17... It's right in the
middle of a corn field... As you can see from the photo of it on the
AirNav web page...

Marion is a cool little strip. When we first moved to Iowa, ten years
ago, it was almost unusable. Since then, they've repaved the ramp and
runway, and it's just a neat little place to visit.

Unfortunately, it's too close to home for us, so we don't go there
often. (Although we DID fly into Amana yesterday -- an 18 minute
flight. But there is SO much to see and do there, and the challenging
little grass strip, that it makes it all worth doing.)
