The Sign.
Today we travel from Souix Falls to Wall, S.D. We will be stopping off in Mitchell, S.D. to visit the only Corn Palace in the world. The exterior of the palace is changed every year with that years corn crop and other related products.

Arrow Campground in Wall was a good place to stop over for a night. The people were very friendly and it was clean, but nothing fancy.
