I dream of driving around and finding places like this that are so awesome and alive and so full of art and history and capture them and present them in such a vibrant way.

What a find and what a mind. I must go see it!
Solly Mack
(90,787 posts)There is so much more to see... and while I do have lots more photos, they don't really do the place justice.
The museum is a delight.

(90,787 posts)It's funny and irreverent. It's even political - left leaning to be exact. But that you'll have to see for yourself because that's one of the subtle hidden gems of the place.
