Huron, South Dakota

We've been here six days now and have met with some old aquaintances and have met some new people. Huron is known for having the Worlds Largest Pheasant and has 20 murals painted throughout town on buildings, which I haven't taken any pictures of yet.


Over the weekend, on the fairgrounds where we are parked, they also had an Antique Power Show, with old engines, tractors and cars. They also had a flea market, I saw a Gibble's Chip can at one stand, and they also had a parade each day.
