Day - Lost Count - I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack

So much has happened since last blog that I'll have to portion it out over next several days.  You are spared any accounts of my class reunion "what happens in Shadyside stays in Shadyside.  We will remain focused on the Model A drive, sans Carol.  And oh by the way it was my 50th reunion not 59th as stated in last blog.  Thanks Pat Paulucci for pointing out the error of my ways.

Entering Rapid City Regional Airport at breakneck speed

 to drop ( literally) me off at the curb to catch my flight to Ohio.

My men had spotted an air museum next door to the airport at

 Ellis AFB

B-29

 B-52

 B-57  ( Captain Larry's airplane)

Rapid City break down - So much for sightseeing to

Mt. Rushmore or Crazy Horse.

 The repair begins of a broken right steering arm .

 Super specialist consultants

with liquid refreshments to sustain themselves.

 Look closely - 

 Model A car folks can you spot the problem?

Non-car folks that upper round bar should connect

over to the wheel - Best just to go straight and

don't turn anywhere or the left one may look the same.

Not a good thing.

 The little devil that broke !! Seems small and cute.

Perhaps it should have a longer stem.

Next Day!!  Drive to Mitchell, SD

                                      

 And my honey in front of the Mitchell Corn Palace!

Appears to be a bit down sized from its glory days in 1921.

(Oops just reread this I mean the Palace not Dave.)

Now an activity center dedicated to youth.

 But Cornelius Corn is a happy greeting.

( perhaps my daughter could tell me how to rotate

this picture?  I rotated in the picture file but it

turns around on the blog???  

 Just turn your computer on its side.

 The REAL Cornelius Corn

Corney mail box. 

Dave ordered one for our Nebraska corn farmer friend.

Okay, guys enough for the day.  I must prepare for the

Ishpeming parade and Pig Roast.  What does one wear

to a pig roast?   Perhaps they'll have a lovely Syrah or

Pinot Noir to complement the pig.
