The Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers
explored the Rancho Deluxe Z
Bicycle Garden
500 2nd Street NE
Mason City, Iowa
August 4, 2017

The first thing the two RV Gypsies saw when they exited their car was the very unique Vietnam memorial with doors that once flew in Vietnam but were now turning in the wind here in Iowa. The monument tells more of the story.

At Rancho Deluxe, the two RV Gypsies were surrounded by artwork of all kinds. Old bicycles of every shape, size and age were hoisted onto the tops of walls, made up of concrete blocks. There were signs everywhere throughout the garden. It is usually open 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. and admission as free on this date. The two RV Gypsies found this to be an unbelievable place; quirky, odd, unique, and creative. Definitely worth a visit.
