One Day in Fargo, North Dakota

I can’t tell you how many times we’ve had a short time in a city and wished we could stay longer. Fargo, North Dakota, is one of those cities. We had a week to explore North Dakota, and a single day in Fargo was our starting point.

The World's Only Corn Palace in Mitchell, South Dakota, had been on my bucket list for years. We finally made it there in the fall of 2019. Although today this is the world’s only corn palace, it wasn’t the first. The first was in Sioux City, Iowa, which opened in 1887. It was so popular that over the next half-century at least 34 grain palaces were built across Midwest towns. However, the only one that lasted into the 21st century is the one in Mitchell, and it’s a-maize-ing to see.Each year the World's Only Corn Palace is redecorated, using at least a dozen natural colors of corn, plus other grains and natural grasses.

We’re always excited when we come across a Muffler Man we didn’t know existed. That happened twice on our recent Kansas trip. Skip noticed the first one as we passed Brown's Tire in Wichita. Appropriately, the giant is holding a small tire in one hand.Then, as we were exploring the Dodge City Trail of Fame we came across another one: LaSalsa Man. According to an informational sign near the fiberglass statue, LaSalsa Man was a soda jerk carrying a hamburger before being transformed by artist Bob “Daddy O” Wade. Wade used the hamburger bun top for the sombrero and the bun bottom for the tray.The late actor Dennis Hopper once owned LaSalsa Man. After Hopper’s passing, the 26-foot tall statue was donated to Dodge City, Hopper’s home town.
