Corn Dome!



My friend Vicky Vetter pointed out that I missed the Corn Palace domes on the grass a block or two away from the Palace itself. So she sent me the picture you see above to add to the blog! Enjoy!

Here is a picture of the Palace without the domes.



It's behind the Slush Puppie I drank whilst walking around. You can read my review of the Slush Puppie here on my other blog!

Thank you, Vicky!

Corn Palace Days 2014!

I just got back from a short, weekend visit to Mitchell. It was a whirlwind trip, but I did get to spend the better part of an hour on Sunday morning walking around the closed-down Corn Palace Days. I got a good group of pictures that you'll see below! Mitchell is just covered in Corn Palace.





They are redoing the Corn Palace!



They took off the domes, which makes the Palace look a little funny.






Corn Palace Days has lots of rides, games, and food vendors. This is probably my favorite Corn Palace ripoff I've ever seen!











You might not be able to see it, but there are a few domes painted over the words on this window.






This is what they put up before they add the corn to the murals!




And with the official Mitchell City Seal we are done! Look for another post soon. It'll be about something I bought at the Corn Palace gift shop!
