Something I've pondered since we have lived in Iowa...

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

This flock of sheep is just down the road (literally) from our house. Does that mean that the shepherds were in Iowa when the Savior was born?

One morning, just after we moved to Iowa, we were awakened with the sound of "bah...bah" (we had slept with our bedroom window open that night). Realizing that we had just heard some sheep in a nearby field we both turned and looked at each other and said "where did we move to?"
