After some fun and major sweating we went north on 68 to see a place I have driven by a few times. We ended up at Hill Billy Arts Garden.
My brother was a bit iffy about it but this is the kind of stuff you see on the side of the road throughout America... In all different shapes and form so it was a must stop for me. It is by donation and you get a full guided tour with puns and all thru the art garden and to see a small portion of the toys they have collected spanning 100 years.
I had to chuckle at first because it isn't often he gets someone who lives like me... So a comment about the above van as a guest room and me saying it's bigger than my home... Or a toilet seat on a pot and I said I have a coffee can, took our guide off guard for a moment. He made references from the area but also of roadside art from other parts of the country... Places I have seen and been. Quite fun.

Painting on the side of the trailer that store 80% of his toys they need to find a building for.
A small portion of the toys spanning 100 years.
There is a ton more to see so when you stop leave lots of time. My brother and I were in a bit of a time crunch because we were meeting some friends of mine cycling across the country. Stop by tomorrow to hear all their adventures.
So cool!
