West Side Story intern, senior Jessica Duling, put together this photo story after visiting Kalona Cheese Factory, the Maharishi Vedic City and the Wilton Candy Kitchen. Each place is a unique little gem just outside of Iowa City which makes these stops perfect for short road trips that can be easily visited for a day.
