World's Largest!


Don't hold me accountable if you find something larger than what I post!  As I was doing research for this post, I found a list of US States with what they claim are the World's largest, but it came apparent to me that no one was checking up on them!  Some different states would claim they have the largest chair, for example, so just take them as you see them!
Chair:  Anniston, AL
Buffalo statue:  Jamestown, ND
Crayon:  Easton, PA
Donut:  Los Angeles, CA
Kokopelli:  Yavapai County, AR
Baseball bat:  Louisville, KY
Snowman:  North St. Paul, MN
Old Ben (real steer):  Howard County, IN
Bicycle:  Sparta, WI
Thermometer:  Baker, CA

Well, I have had my own experience with this one!  While working in Marietta, Georgia, I would ask the locals how to get to certain places and their answers always had the Big Chicken in it, go to the big chicken and make a right, go passed the big chicken and make the first left.  Marietta, Georgia is definitely the home of the Big Chicken!
Big Chicken:  Marietta, GA
Tire:  Allen Park, MI
Washboard:  Logan, OH

Have a great day!

Unique Artist Structures Continued


I'm continuing with unique structures this week and I have more water towers for you!
Cherokee Co - SC
Franklin Co. IL
Hillsborough Co. FL
Honolulu - HI  (1927 to 1993)
Madison Co - IL
Moniteau Co - MO
Montgomery Co. IA
Olmsted Co - MN
Pickaway Co OH
Travis Co - TX
York Co - SC

My guess is, if you are forced to live near a large water tower, at least these wouldn't be too bad.

Have a great day!
