Three Things I Like About Spokane
The 1909 Loof Carousel
Frederick Law Olmstead's Manito Park
And the gigantic 40ft high Totem (e'hem) Pole in River Front Park, next to a childrens playground, that no one in town has ever noticed is sporting a 12 FOOT erect penis...ever...since Expo. Took my "dirty city mind" to notice it. How could this be missed? I MISSED it in High School! Just walked right past, never noticing with everyone else.
I hope to find more hidden gems of culture here.

I Drove All Over America And All I Got Was This FABULOUS HAT! In 3D! In THE ROUND!
Detailing How I Spent My Summer Vacation. Since I just started the hat this summer I am trying to fill it in with places I went BEFORE Summer Vacation....SO, dear Blog Fans, I'm asking for retroactive donations if you are near them (I've already gotten a retroactive Hap-pea and Pea-Wee, and an Angel Moroni!)...I could use:
Calfornia Redwood
Bohemian Grove
Confusion Hill
Grauman's Chinese Theatre
The Empire State Building
McSorley's Old Ale House
The Stardust Hotel (Vintage)
The Golden Gate Bridge
Disneyland
Hearst Castle
St. Louis Arch

My Very First 3D Picture of My First Car
Even though it was on 35 mm and sucked, it turned out that, me, a vintage Oldsmobile, and a slide bar would one day Conquer America
!
...Of course with the help of my trusty companion, the Wild Tambolope I rescued from a bear trap in Wyoming.

How I Spent My Summer Vacation: Rapid City, Just Like Cary Grant
I got in at 1am after 15 hours of driving on windy Pine Ridge Reservation Roads, and ended up at the famous hotel Alex Johnson (like Hitch did). Can you IMAGINE my horror as I dragged a suitcase a couple of blocks from my trailer to find a life size statue of Nixon sitting malevelontly on the sidewalk in the dark on a Chinese Dragon chair? I was affraid I had died in an accident and Dick was my "Hitchhiker!"

How I Spent My Summer Vacation: Wounded Knee
Thanks to Little Moon, who showed me the mass grave in the dark, I wouldn't have found it without you, and wouldn't have gone in if I was alone.
