The Hunt for Large Items

If you’ve seen my personal Facebook, you have probably seen pictures of Will next to large objects. We’ve been trying to find quirky stops and large objects every place we go, some places have a lot more to see than others. For Denver, we had an entire morning mapped out with ideas from RoadsideAmerica.com.

Because it was just the boys and I, we didn’t stop and get out of the truck at all the items on our list. Some of the areas were a little questionable and I wasn’t comfortable getting out of the car. We drove through some really nice areas of town, some not so nice areas of town, and past several homeless camps. It was a little eye opening for the boys and a learning experience as well.

We did end up being able to stop at 4 different locations for the pictures. One of the favorites for everyone was a giant milk jug. It is an ice cream store, so of course we tried their ice cream. I think the boys’ next favorite was either the dog at the humane shelter or the big blue bear.

Some of the other objects we saw (but I was driving and couldn’t grab a picture) was a 3 legged chair, a dust pan and broom, and a smoke stack painted like a No. 2 pencil.

It’s been really fun trying to see quirky objects in the different towns we go to.
