Day 5 – Kansas City, MO to Chamberlain, SD

Day 5 found us up and out by 6:30 (UGH) am. We sailed up I29 from Kansas City to Chamberlain, SD at a rapid 75+mph. We stopped in Sioux City, IA for breakfast and then cruised non-stop to Mitchell, SD and the Corn Palace (pictured). The murals on the exterior of this building are made entirely of colored corn and reflect the theme of the year. Every year, an new theme is chosen and the murals are redone. They have been doing it since 1892. Had lunch right next door at the Scoreboard Pub & Grill – Great Wheat Beer and good food.
Stopped for the night in Chanberlain, SD on the shores of Lake Sharpe (an impoundment on the Missouri River.) It was difficult to find a motel here so we called ahead to reserve something neat Mt. Rushmore. After calling a dozen places near Rushmore, I finally found a new Comfort Inn in Custer, SD – we’ll be staying there Saturday and Sunday nights.
