Corn anyone

Spence and I went to Mitchell SD last weekend. When you go to Mitchell you have to go to the Corn Palace. Everything in the front of the building is designed with corn, hence the Corn Palace.



This is a close up the mural. It is redecorated each year with naturally colored corn and other grains and native grass.They used 13 different colors or shades of corn this year. This has been going on since 1905. This building was built in 1921. Just a little SD history for you.
