The World’s Only

I spent the last few days visiting a good friend in Mitchell, SD.

Yes, that would be the home of the Corn Palace.

The World’s Only . . . . .I might add! 😉

I love the corny billboards. (Sorry, I couldn’t resist the pun; it was too easy.)

(“Bushels of Fun”)

My friend, Lacey, and I were first-year teachers at the high school when we taught there, so we bonded right away.

It had been two years since I last saw her, but it was like our friendship hadn’t lost a beat.

One day for lunch we ventured downtown to a cute little cafe—Cafe Teresa.

I loved the inside decor and classy vibe.

A historic feel with the brick walls, yet a modern and cozy atmosphere.

I had a delicious mixed green salad with sweet, dried cranberries; walnuts; hearty croutons; and a light, refreshing balsamic vinaigrette dressing.

It was delicious!

That afternoon with a temperature of 90* and high humidity, where does one go?

Why the water park, of course!

We took Lacey’s two kids there.

Payton – 3.5 years old

Charlie – 16 months. . . and my birthday buddy!!

It was SO great to hang out with a good friend again!! I have definitely missed our friendship!!
