Corn Palace Mitchell

Well, another wonderful, beautiful travel day. Left MN at 9:15 a.m. and headed to SD! It was a long drive but again the weather was perfect and we took our time.

Our first stop was the Corn Palace in MItchell, SD! It was a "corny" hokey, tourist area but fun and made us laugh! The building facade is made of corn; the memorabilia is all …

Jon insisted on buying cinnamon rolls for breakfast. I ate one and he ate the remaining four. Let's see, each roll had 400 calories and he consumed 108% of his daily saturated …

We left Sioux Falls and continued on for the remaining 5 1/2 hour journey to Hill City, South Dakota where we would be staying for the duration of our trip. Of course, no trip to South Dakota would be complete without a stop at the Corn Palace or Wall Drug.. well, actually it would, it really would.

I had pictured in my head a, well, …
