Bright and early, Barry and I took off to Pipestone National Monument in Pipestone, Minnesota.
On our way, we drove through Walnut Grove, Minnesota where Laura Ingalls lived and the TV show was based from. We love driving through small country towns.
Pipestone is known for the stone used by the Indians to carve their peace pipes. This stone is only found in one place in the entire country. We hiked through the prairie and saw beautiful wild flowers as far as the eye could see. Also, we saw another waterfall named Winniewissa.
On the road again and stopped at Mitchell, South Dakota to see the Corn Palace. They say it’s one of a kind. The outside of the building is made out part of cornstalk or corn. You can actually do a drive by and view the outside and then leave. Barry and I were not to excited. Anyway, we can say we where there.
Once again going west on I90 to the Chamberlain rest area. This was an amazing stop. The sculpture, Dignity is a must see. Beautiful area to visit.
We arrived at the Al’s Oasis campground around 7:00.
