This morning we toured the Corn Palace in Mitchell, SD.
They are busy changing the corn to new murals with the new crop of 13 colours of Corn grown locally for the Corn Palace.
The Area inside the Corn Palace and more Corn murals. All around the halls there are photos of all the different years and the murals.
Today we travelled Highway 83 through the Dakotas.
Corn and Sunflower everywhere! And the corn is all over the place.
Today we drove down to Bismark and visited the North Dakota State Capital ‘the Skyscraper on the Praire’ and visited the museum on the capital grounds.
Today we went in the morning to the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center / Fort Mandan near Washburn, South Dakota
This was a great Center with lots of information on Lewis and Clark in North Dakota

Today we had Thanksgiving Dinner with the Imhoffs and Thel. This year the Imhoffs wanted German Rouladen for supper instead of turkey.
Shelby tried on her Halloween costume that Teri make. Doesn’t the costume look great and scary.
Every few months I measure the girls and mark their heights on the door jam to the spare bedroom. Shelby is marked on one side and Shaylene is marked on the other side.
She is 5 feet 7 1/4 inches tall.
Shelby is 49 3/4 inches tall or 4foot 1 3/4 inches.
Shaylene’s Growth Chart in 2004.
Shaylene is 56months and 27 days older than Shelby.
October 8th less 57Months is July 8th 2004 less 3 days is July 5th 2004.
Shaylene was exactly the same age as Shelby on July 5th, 2004. On May 12, 2004 Shaylene was 49&1/2 inches tall. On August 24th, 2004 Shaylene was 50 inches tall.
So on July 5th, 2004 Shaylene would have been about 49 & 3/4 inches tall.
