Looking for lunch and town halls in Byron

After getting caught in rain on gravel roads I detoured to Byron to look for lunch and town halls. My search image for town halls includes gravel and salt storage like this, but this was not a town hall. I did find lunch, though.

Mantorville Town Hall

Mantorville town hall is on the left in this photo looking south in the direction of the village of Mantorville. It's not far out of town, but it's tucked away on a dead end road segment.

Until I found this meeting notice on a back window it wasn't at all clear to me that the old school building also served as the town hall.

Outdoor mural in West Concord, MN

I stopped for a snack by this outdoor mural in West Concord. Before leaving I tried to match the scene with the actual, present-day street scene.

I missed the rain that had wetted the sidewalk, but I didn't miss the rains that came at the end of my ride to Faribault, several miles north of here.
