They can't be serious!
« on: October 26, 2013, 04:20:20 AM »
That's about the most expensive gas cap as you would ever want to buy! There can't be too much on this thing left that is any good for that price.  Looks like they hooked it with their fly rod from down on a river bed somewhere.

OK...wait a minute. I am getting a vision.  I'll put out by my porch near the bushes for 'yard art' and mount my mailbox on it.

Yes I think yard art is the best future for this ghost.  Too bad that rare speedometer didn't survive.

Yard art or maybe a special place in the Museum of Science and Industry as a perfect example of total neglect .

I haven't been there in 30 years or so either.  My Uncle did the Circus exhibit, and my Aunt did the artwork for it.  If I ever find myself in Chicago again, I will stop by.

 "If I ever find myself in Chicago again, I will stop by."

That's how it is for us , too . ;)

We really do our best to avoid crowds and that includes big cities .
