Mrs. Gordon must have had cold feet. Or not.
At first I thought these were bed pans, but they’re smaller than those I remember seeing years ago. They also seem to be missing the bottom portion, where you put the coal. Maybe these are a different type of bed pan?
Like door locks.
But, wait! There's more...Meet Myrtle the Turtle. She’s a baby Alligator Snapping Turtle, and her soft shell is only about one inch long. This is an extreme closeup photo – she’s only about the size of a quarter. Ranger Roscoe just loves her tiny little tail. (you can see it in the above photo)
But, wait! There's more...Big stone heads.
If you say it fast, you may think it’s a reference to tall pot-smokers. But this is a drug-free blog.
And the stone heads are in Texas, where everything is big. I don’t know why everything is big in Texas, but it may have something to do with the size of the state. The state is HUGE so everything else probably needs to be larger to look proportionate.
So someone decided to duplicate the Easter Island heads.
But, wait! There's more...I could whine to you all about a lot of things, and probably come up with a much better post, but I need something to make me smile today.
Ms. Pearl is it. I hope she makes you smile, too.
The Godzilla of Squirrels
But, wait! There's more...… I saw one item: a post stating the World’s Largest Blue Crab was no longer there.
What? NO giant crab? I live for seeing giant, wacky stuff like that. It just makes me laugh; I don’t know why. So I was disappointed to learn it had been destroyed by the big storms, removed, and buried (???) long ago. Ooh, I wonder where the grave is?
But, wait! There's more...Guess where the large peace pipe is? Right! Pipestone, Minnesota.
(I know you already knew that.)
After all of this 100+ degree heat, part of me wishes I was still freezing my tail off in South Dakota. To finish out my trip to the frozen tundra, where TSA felt me up, and I saw the best butt crack ever, I now bring you a giant peace pipe. And some more pictures of snow. You’re welcome.
The large peace pipe is proudly displayed next to the Keepers of the Sacred Tradition of Pipemakers store. The area is known for the pipestone Native Americans used for making pipes.
But, wait! There's more...That nice cowboy who took me to see bulls being castrated, and ride in a hay bailing tractor got me hooked on Duck Dynasty. Yeah, he’s a real romantic. But have you seen Duck Dynasty?? It’s the best reality show on TV. WAIT! Don’t go! I’m sorry I used a … But, wait! There’s more…
The shadow of a Giant Armadillo loomed over us as we entered the flea market, pushing against the stream of fleeing fleas. I’m not sure what the state animal of Texas is, but it should be the armadillo. Ok, so I just did a little googling extensive research and came … But, wait! There’s more…
With an abundance of my much-missed Starbucks/any coffee shop and health food restaurants, Austin reminds me a bit of many cities in California. And there’s quite a bit of fun, wacky stuff to see in Austin, the capital of Texas – besides the big blue spider butt. This post was … But, wait! There’s more…
Remember when I said ‘Texans have big balls‘? Well, they have some really big nuts, too. I went to the nuthouse. I know you’re all thinking, “Well, it’s about time!” No, not as a patient! It was just for a visit thankyouverymuch. Besides, it wasn’t that kind of nuthouse. But … But, wait! There’s more…
