Corny!!!!

Our first stop when we headed westward from Sioux Falls the next day was a visit to the Corn Palace in Mitchell SD. This gymnasium/exhibition hall has been transformed each year over the last 100 years into an artistic canvas for the display of pictures made from colored corn cobs – who would have thunk????!!!!!

Corny as it was, we were urged by many to be sure not to miss this tourist attraction, and it was certainly worth the hour we spent there. Looking at the various ways in which painted corn cobs could be stabled to the wall to form various murals.
