Hello Relatives, friends,Calvary, and AYC members
After completing Family business in the K.C. area we crossed a corner of Iowa into the rolling prairie of South Dakota where our 1st stop was at the Corn Palace in Mitchell, SD. A very unusual building, Most of the interior decor is murals made of 12 varieties and colors of corn. It also has a gym where several colleges and high schools play basketball, and has a stage for concerts and plays.
They have an artist on staff who creates murals for 2 of the exterior walls made entirely of corn and other grain products grown in the area. Since corn on the cob and corn stalks only lasts so long outdoors they completely recover those 2 walls every year with new murals.
For all of you sailors out there, don't despair, we will have our boat in the water about June 12.
Stand by for periodic updates. Eldor
