This Iowa town that happily greets travelers on Interstate 80 once had two names before the town voted to officially name it What Cheer in the late 19th century.
I live just a few miles west of What Cheer, in another small town of Rose Hill, IA. Although they have been gone for many years now, the bars in What Cheer used to the place to go for drinks on a Saturday night.
My grandparents use to live there . My great grandfather built the house. After g-grandma past. They moved in. They lived there till they past . Whoever bought it tore it down and now a field.
Nicely done little piece. The Opera House is really neat and the local community is very proud of it. It wasn't mentioned but for many years What Cheer has hosted a large flea market called Collector's Paradise. It is known by avid collectors nationwide.
Black in the day I used to drink beer in Betty's bar. If she was closed I'd go to Ivan's. Can't recollect what the other one was called. Good friends there......BTW been sober over 25yrs.

My aunt and cousins lived in what cheer until my aunt died. Spent many days walking the creek and playing basketball in the park across from Casey’s.

"What Cheer" is a Welsh greeting
Watt Cheer doesn't know how to spell. Or, they know how to spell but can't pronounce worth a squat.
It's embarrassing either way.
