Thank you for visiting our town. My wife and I own the pharmacy that is located in the large bank building on the corner of Main Street. One point of clarification I would like to make is that the stone that is carved by the native americans is called pipestone. Pipestone is a very soft rock that is found between quartzite layers. In contrast, quartzite is a very hard rock which makes it a good building material. The large difference in hardness is the reason why it must be quarried by hand at the monument. Explosives and pneumatic hammer drills would cause too much vibration and shock waves which would fracture the pipestone and make it useless to carve.

Such a cool town ❤ My great grandparents lived in it after moving there from their farm, about 10 miles to the north. They moved to the area during the Dust Bowl. I wouldn't exist if not for that lol. Got to stay at the hotel in town when I was a kid too
