You Know, Like Tuh-May-Turr - Except Without the TUH🤣

So there's this little museum type bit not far from the house that we drive by pretty much every day. It's called the 'Old Vehicle City, USA - Mini Collection'. One of the appeals, is there is an old tow truck almost identical to 'Mater in the Cars movies. They even put some eyes in the windshield to give a friendly smile.

There is an interesting story behind how this came to be, actually. I remember driving by it for years, and seeing them add a couple different vehicles that they either picked up or had someone drop off. They were arranged in an ornate way about the yard.

It really was artistic.

But, not everyone felt it was art or nostalgic. Some of the townspeople began to complain about it being an eyesore and shouldn't be allowed inside city limits. (You know the type, the kind that thinks they own everything - especially other people's shit.) So those people made a petition to have it removed at the cost of the property owner.

In hearing this, I helped to get them their own petition going, one that said they could keep it, if they turned it into a history museum of sorts. This one passed much quicker than the other one to have it torn down. They even got state funding to add more relics of the past!

I believe I stopped in here with @ambiguity a while back when he came through. It's a cute little pit stop, can't believe it took me almost 5 years after its 'creation' for me to stop in there with the kiddos. They loved it though. Smiles all around. Oh, do you REMEMBER TO BE YOU! I always am, even as Lightning McKing.
