No more plans for a mini museum.
It sure looks ship shape and that was my thought when I looked at the pictures. Must be a guy who likes to keep busy. I'm that way and I hope I keep it up. I also thought about the place sitting all winter. I'd love to see pictures in the snow

this was quite a place,not open to the public.if i get back there,it's a couple hours from here,in winter,i will take some pictures.i walked up in a Boy's Scout Park for some pictures beside the place.there was a 100 miles of fence around the place.i had sorta hoped someone would see me walking around and come out and want to yak about all this stuff but no dice.the place was like a palace,the yardwork would be never ending and there wasn't a blade of grass out of place.the property extended for a long way back and there were old trucks,road graders,signs,pumps,you name it as far as you could see.unreal.when we stopped up the road a mile or so for my wife to buy a birdhouse,it was there that man told me a little about the guy with all the stuff.apperantly he came to the birdhouse fella and bought 28 of them i think he said,a $1000.00 and has them all over the property out back i guess.apperantly he's very successful in the restaurant business amoung others thing i guess?good for him,he can play with whatever he wants,looks like?she did buy a cool old birdhouse to add to our little hole in the wall.cool.
