Observations from the Web and Beyond of Pat Moriarty

  Happy Half Way to Christmas Day. We can always use a little Christmas cheer. Here is my gallery from  Disney Christmas 2018 . I wonder if you can you get eggnog in the Summer.

There is a museum located in downtown Austin, Minnesota. It is a must see to learn everything about a classic American food made by the Hormel Foods. This museum is a must see for the whole family. I even learned some new sandwich recipes and as most people know - I Like Sandwiches. This was one of our first stops on our trip Go West 2025 .

Fans of classic TV will instantly recognize Marion Ross as “Mrs. C” from the classic television show Happy Days where she played the role of an iconic television mom.  A Minnesota native, Marion Ross is honored in her hometown of Albert Lea, Minnesota, with a beautifully crafted statue right outside the Marion Ross Performing Arts Center. This was another stop in our adventure as we  Go West 2025 .

During our trip West we made it to the World’s Only Corn Palace in Mitchell, South Dakota in the late afternoon on Monday, April 28. The exterior of the Corn Palace is decorated with massive murals made entirely from multi-colored ears of corn, grains, and native grasses. By looking at it you might just forget it is actually made of corn. Be sure to check out more pictures on my new website as we Go West to the World’s Only Corn Palace .
