USS Alabama is in — Alabama

Kernut the Blond Posted on February 28, 2018 by KernutMarch 5, 2018
I can't begin to imagine how LOUD those must be when firing.

For all you history buffs and statisticians: The USS Alabama (BB-60), a South Dakota-class battleship, was the sixth ship of the United States Navy named after the US state of Alabama. The Alabama was commissioned in 1942 and served in World War II in the Atlantic and Pacific theaters and decommisioned in January, 1947.

Lady in the Lake, Dinosaurs and a Knight in the Woods

Kernut the Blond Posted on November 12, 2017 by KernutNovember 13, 2017
I caught my Knight in (not so) Shining Armor.

I’m pretty sure I was drawn to this place for a reason – the Cheezy Americana energy is strong. Like the Force is strong in the Star Wars’ Universe. Goofy roadside attractions are all over: Lady in the Lake, Dinosaurs in the Woods, Knights in the Woods, World’s Largest Sundial, Caesars Palace fountain.

Pennsylvania, land of miniature villages

Choo Choo Barn Miniature Village in Strasburg, PA

I’ve always loved all things miniature: miniature decks of cards, little glass bottles, little Christmas villages under the tree. Even stamps are little miniature pieces of artwork to me. Of course this includes miniature villages – they are the best! It’s no wonder I love making gnome doors, and creating miniature gnome homes “in the wild”.

The Empty Cross in Kerrville Texas

Kernut the Blond Posted on March 19, 2016 by KernutMarch 19, 2016

Kerrville, Texas, is home to The Empty Cross, a 77′ 7″-tall, 70-ton steel tribute to Christianity. It is the largest cross I’ve ever visited, but it isn’t the largest in the world, nor the largest in the US.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch named Meanwhile there was a giant ant.

Meanwhile back at the ranch.

When I was in north Texas Hill Country near Kerrville, I would walk through the neighborhood. One day, shortly after I snagged the photos of the giant ant in their front yard (below), this fence and gate showed up.

A giant kiss at midnight on NYE.

A midnight kiss in Hershey, Pennsylvania, on New Year’s Eve For someone who loves cheezy roadside attractions, chocolate, and for whom New Year’s is her favorite holiday, it was a near perfect night. Forget about the crystal ball. On New Year’s Eve towns all across Pennsylvania drop (or raise) a … But, wait! There’s more…

Gingerbread Cartman in Smithville, Texas.

The World’s Largest Gingerbread Cookie

As you can see by his name tag, his real name is Smitty. Smitty helped put Smithville, Texas, in the Guinness World Record Book for the largest gingerbread cookie. I sure wish I’d been there for that. I like cookies. I like big cookies – a lot.

Why is it called Tourist Season if we can’t shoot at them?

Kernut the Blond Posted on June 29, 2015 by KernutJuly 7, 2015
Giant Gift Bags roadside attraction - because there is always room for more stuff.

The unique touristy stores were full of great knick-knacks, but the throngs of rude tourists and frustrated store clerks prompted a hasty retreat. Hence my question: Why is is called tourist season if we can’t shoot at them?
