Clear Lake, Iowa is a great place to visit. Lot’s of stores, restaurants and some good coffee shops. Also it has an very interesting historic site just outside of town. It is the location where Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper, and Ritchie Valen’s plane went down on February 3, 1959.
The site has a small memorial literally in the middle of a farm field. Take a look at some of the photos including a couple from the Surf Ballroom, where they played thier last show. The ballroom is still open and has many shows through-out the year.
