Some dude in the hood here has a soda machine sitting in his front yard plugged in. Never stopped to see how much they are though.

Funny thing is we have something very similar up the highway from me here in WNC....

Been to it as a kid. It burned down years ago, was rebuilt. I remember before the fire they had a metric shit ton of antiques, which now I would appreciate more.

Elmer's Fountain east of Wallace ID on Interstate 90!                                                 Always special but better in winter. Only accessible eastbound, no signs, 5 miles east of Wallace which is a beautiful surviving mining town.  Take a mine tour!

Saw this random Abrams tank near Boise, ID.  There is nothing around it.  Just a tank on a concrete pad with a plaque.

Driving through Boston while stuck in traffic I witnessed a fat elderly woman hike up her moo moo/ night dress and take a big ol piss on the stairs she was sitting on. I was only around 13 or so years old. The lady looked directly at me with a smile on her face.
