    Propane tank 'pumpkins': I took this pic myself today. Can you guess from where?
    9v7k2lf219md.jpg

    There's already been one guess of East Lansing, MI, which was a good one, but incorrect. We are indeed in MI, though. Think ART.

    Michigan and art don't usually come in the same thoughts. I used to live there. It used to have more, but when that corrupt Detroit mayor took the city into Bankruptcy, I remember the city owned museums had to sell off a bunch of their artwork.

    I don't want to stretch this out too long, so I'll just mention that we are on the 'Art Coast' of Michigan. I took that pic at a crossroads farmers market that is between Saugatuck and Fennville.

    25 years living there with 25+ visits back since leaving in 1996. This is the 1st I've heard of an Art Coast. It must be something that's been promoted more in recent years. Or maybe because that area of the state is my least visited. Most of my family and friends are in SE Mich, Grand Rapids, Flint, or Traverse City. Most of our vacations to Lake Michigan were further north.
    Maybe I will have to venture that way sometime.

    Definitely look into the SW coast of MI. We're near Saugatuck, but Holland appears to be the primary vacation hub. On this side of the state, sunsets are the premium.

    Only less than 10 percent of people who disappear in the my neck of the woods are ever found. Which is getting kinda high. Thinking about moving to Florida. Any suggestions?

    Don't see many of those early 50s models on the road. That's pretty cool.

    It is a ‘55 model, which would be the first year for a V8…

    Which took the old Vette from 0-60 in ~7s, and that was a big improvement from the 11s that the old straight-6 cars took.

    Do you have any miniature Polk buildings somewhere on that layout?

    I'm thinking of the Old Baltimore House etc.

    You're a northwest guy right? Remember the Green River killer?? The WA track I raced at for all those years was right across the highway from Green River College. Always an eerie drive up the long hill through the woods as you crossed over Green River, getting to the track, knowing that there were probably remains of women that hadn't been found yet.

    "His" reign took place between early 80s to late 90's. I raced from 86 to 95 during my first stint, and then again from 03 to 08.....chilly man, just chilly.
