I made a point of trying to find interesting places to visit, eat, and stay.  When I got to Murdo SD, I decided it was time for lunch and I saw billboards advertising Star Cafe.  So I headed there and was pleasantly surprised with true down home cooking.  The special was a hot turkey sandwich (of course on white bread) with mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry and whole kernel corn!  And it was only $8.50.  What a deal and it was really very good!  On my way in to town, I saw an auto museum that had been there since 1954.  So of course, I stopped.  Only $11.50 and you could tour hundsreds of autos dating back to the early 1900s with a little "fake" town including the local bank.  Many of the cars appeared to have been there for many decades with flat tires, no restoration, and dust accumulated many inches thick over the years.  But i did see the 1951 Ford coupe.  My first car had also been a 1951 Ford Victoria hardtop that looked like this one from the front but not the same style as mine.  

The other picture above is from Mitchell SD.  Their big claim to fame is the corn palace so I headed there to check it out.  Well, I come from wheat country and can't imaging taking heads of corn to recorate the exterior of the main convention center every year.  Oh  yeah, and they did the same inside the building.  Guessing those cold winters with the strong winds cause people to pursue very unique activities.
