THE CORN PALACE IN MITCHELL, SOUTH DAKOTA

[@lovesmimiv6583]

Great video! I went there with my parents & sisters when I was four, we were visiting my aunt & uncle. I remember looking at souvenirs! Hope they let Roxy in!

Roxy would have loved the smell of that popcorn! We didn't try to get her in, though they may have welcomed her! It was a fun stop,

South Dakota is my favorite state. So many great things to see in SD. The Corn Palace is just one cool place!❤❤❤

We had a wonderful experience in South Dakota! From the Laura Ingalls Wilder sites in DeSmet to the Badlands and all the fun stuff in between! The Corn Palace was a fun surprise!

I used to drive from Ohio to Seattle once a year, taking I-90 straight through Michell, SD. Mitchell is about 1/2 way through SD & the Corn Palac is literally the only thing to see. Well...there is a Dairy Queen. I did like seeing the murals change every time I came through. It was hokey, but in a quaint, down-home sense. The people there were the "salt of the earth" type.

Yes, everyone was so nice and proud of their town. We enjoyed it!

At first I thought, ho hum, it wasn't going to be interesting but it was. My very first question as you got started was, that can't be corn on the outside and it would have to be replaced often, LOL. $130k annually and they don't charge and entrance fee? Nice video, thanks for sharing.

[@timetogo4533]

Glad you enjoyed it! It’s an interesting place for sure! Maybe they sell enough merchandise and popcorn to cover the costs. They say 500,000 people a year stop by!

My aunt took her family by the corn 🌽 palace in the 60s although I have not been there. It's a treasure of the great American road trip. May they continue to be there for decades to come. Is Mount Rushmore close by?

[@timetogo4533]

@@alangray9117 It truly is a treasure! Mount Rushmore is a little over 4 hours away. We really enjoyed South Dakota! We camped on the rim of the Badlands and enjoyed camping on the original homestead of Laura Ingalls Wilder in DeSmet. So awesome!
