And now for a pop quiz:  While we're all familiar with corn (and Jim's thinking here of his favorite Uncle Dale who was known affectionately as "Cob"), when is corn not a delicious food?  Answer:  When you're standing at a traffic light post in Mitchell, SD,


or when you're in rapture at Mitchell's Corn Palace!


 
 
Every year the good folks in Mitchell transform the exterior of an exhibition hall into a three-dimensional, undulating wonderland--using ONLY corn and other grains (including the stalks) grown in South Dakota.  VERY cool!  (Kudos to our friends Helen and Bruce for sending us here.)

  1. Rapture is a strong word, Jim--be careful that you and Anne aren't taken up in some apocalyptic corn-powered event!
