Where on Earth is Dad's Elwell Store?


this shot was taken about 20 minutes after the one posted yesterday. it's remarkable how much the sky's intensity changed. 
i've been trying to figure where we were when ... looking through the other shots of Dad's a couple of road signs appeared - i couldn't read the whole sign, but it did have 111 on one and another MN-64 - so, with a little google earth work, here's another view:

I lived in a wonderful old farm house just a mile and a half west of this store. Lived there for about ten years. Shopped at the store often, rented movies, etc. It's on Hwy #64,the fourteen mile corner we call it, as it's fourteen miles west of Pine River, MN. Sorry it closed...

Drove by it today on my way home from Nevis. My ex said I should buy it and turn it into a restaurant....

I drove by today and was wondering the history of the store. I've lived near by for the last 11 years and it has been closed the entire time.
