    You passed less than a mile from my house. The old counterfeiter gas station is owned by one of my neighbors. I love living on 66 we get to see a lot of travellers in our small town. I had my wedding reception at the route 66 interprive center.

    Fun fact on the round barn. It was created to be round so that evil spirits could not dwell in the corners or trap you in the corners. How they built it is quite interesting and they restored it in the late 80s.

    Thank you Jacob for curing my travel itch. My wife and I have the time and money to go to lots of places and do lots of things, but your forays into the hinterlands are a nice reminder that maybe we aren't missing that much. Besides, when you're older and have been there and done that, just taking a walk to a local park ends up being better than most long trips to exotic locales.

    I'm in Spain right now and went to a small amusement park, Parque de Attraciones de Zaragoza. The Ferris Wheel, which is also the park's icon/mascot, allowed me to ride the wheel by myself, but it did sound like weight is still a factor for the attraction-which you have mentioned as a reason before

    Shoes usually signify that I am leaving this place. They didn't stay up for long, but sometimes you would see a pair of combat boots over a tree or telephone wire. The soldier's enlistment was up and he was out of there. Last thing he/she did was flip his well worn boots in the air.

    There was a scene in Spielberg's movie 1941 where a ferris wheel rolls of the Santa Monica pier. The Ferris wheel btw was designed in Pittsburgh by Ferris. He took the basic idea from a French wheel that was wooden, much smaller, and hand cranked by men. Ferris designed the metal structure, made it enormous and motorized it.

    That Soda shop would be heaven for me (certainly gaining a few with the Pinball and Car places lol) and the Home Cinema looked awesome.
    The mystery game is Pachinko, a japanese cousin of Pinball and very popular in Japan as a way to circumvent the gambling laws, if you see one with slot reels thats called a Pachislot, we've another alternative here that was popular from the 40's to the 60's called an Allwin that launches the ball like a Pachinko but usually does without the Pins.

  • @Polyeurythane
    @Polyeurythane 2 года назад +1

    I’m sure someone knows better, but here’s my guess as to why trees die from too many shoes (based on the bit of knowledge I have on tree anatomy). I typically view trees as a big circulatory system, like a big stiff arm with arteries and veins that are circulating nutrients and wastes throughout the “arm”. If too much circulation is cut off by a “band” (shoes or other force) for long enough, the tissue starts dying until it completely dies off enough that the entire “arm” dies.
