Mitchell Corn Palace in Mitchell, SD




The Mitchell Corn Palace is in Mitchell, SD.  It was 106 degrees when we
visited.  It's nice and air conditioned inside and has a huge gift shop, of course,
a movie theater where they show you a short movie about the famous palace
and a refreshing concession stand.

Yes, this building is covered in corn!  There are lots of corn murals inside as well.

They built this in 1892 to showcase their corn and get tourists to Mitchell.
120 years later, it's still working!

Each year they change the theme, this year, "Youth Activities". 
Maybe they are running out of ideas?

Check out the You Tube video all about it. 





Cornelius!

Badlands, Painted Canyon, Theodore Rosevelt National Park

The Badlands of North and South Dakota are amazing to see.  These photos are from Theodore Rosevelt National Park in North Dakota.  It looks like you are driving through completely flat land and then you drive around a corner and POW!  Photos don't do it justice.  Thank goodness we weren't driving through it at night, we never would have seen it.
