A twofer! The Taxidermy Hall of Fame of North Carolina AND The Creation Museum are in one location…and there’s also lemon fudge. 👀 There’s also a number of collections within the museum that’s within a museum. This place has *layers*. Like old keys? Got it. Old saws? Yep. Old corkscrews? That too! Literally full to the brim in every corner of all types of stuff. So, that said, if you don’t like stuffed critters (some great taxidermy here and a few so-bad-it-is-good taxidermy too) or ‘turn or burn’ Christianity in the form of 1970’s & 80’s tracts and handmade plaques then you’ll still have plenty to look at. Other things to note - Donation based. Hours differ than the bookstore it’s located in. You are recorded and the video is streamed in the store aka folks are watching you. You have to request to have the chain gate opened for you so you can enter. Self-guided tour. And yes there’s a small selection of fudge for sale. I almost passed it up but we decided to buy a road-trip snack and it was GOOD. 10/10 recommend. #NCRoadTrip #ExploreNC #NorthCarolinaAdventures #RoadsideNC #NCAttractions #DiscoverNC #TravelNC #VisitNC #NCHiddenGems #NCBucketList #RoadsideAmericaNC #NCAdventureAwaits #NCRoadsideViews #NCRoadsideMarvels #NCExploreMore #NCRoadsideFun #NorthCarolinaRoadside #NCRoadsideExcursions #NCRoadTripFinds #NCRoadsideBeauty #outsiderart #outsiderartist #northcarolina #atlasobscura #ipulledoverforthis #roadsideamericana #roadsideamerica #anothersouthernroadsideattraction #roadsideattractions #weirdtaxidermy

903-Ft Above Sea ➙ Here’s one of my favorites! Elevation marker similar to the ones located on and near Whiteface Mountain. Dated 1940. This appears it was placed by the Erie County Highway Department. It’s the only mountain-shaped elevation marker in this style I’ve seen outside of the Adirondacks. I remember hearing there may have once been another one like this near Morningside Reservoir in Syracuse.

Riding along Route 66 through the town of Ash Fork, Arizona I couldn’t resist stopping to snap a quick pic of what remains of the office and sign for the Hi-Line Motel. Seeing the empty ghost of such places fills me with a strange mixture of curiosity, melancholy, and nostalgia for a place I never knew. ❤️👈🏻 𝕿𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖝 𝖋𝖔𝖗 𝕽𝖊𝖆𝖉𝖎𝖓𝖌 #neon #motel #gas_food_lodging #route66 #ashfork #arizona #hilinemotel #themotherroad #americana #roadsideattraction #anemoia #roadsideamericana #roadtripping #roadtrip #explore #ipulledoverforthis #vintageadvertising #sign #oldadvertising #vintagead #vintagesigns #signgeeks #vintagesign

Cameron Barnstormer Murals in Cameron, North Carolina are a ‘see it before it’s gone’ situation. The old tobacco barns were painted by a number of different artists aka The Barnstormers over 20 years ago, and now they’re a faded and falling down group of buildings that are just a small fraction of the original works. Still totally worth a stop! We pulled over to the side of the road and wandered about with no issues other than watching out for: fire ant mounds, metal junk hidden in the tall grass and the busy bisecting road. Go before they disappear after the next big storm or 2! #NCRoadTrip #ExploreNC #NorthCarolinaAdventures #RoadsideNC #NCAttractions #DiscoverNC #TravelNC #VisitNC #NCHiddenGems #NCBucketList #RoadsideAmericaNC #NCAdventureAwaits #NCRoadsideViews #NCRoadsideMarvels #NCExploreMore #NCRoadsideFun #NorthCarolinaRoadside #NCRoadsideExcursions #NCRoadTripFinds #NCRoadsideBeauty #outsiderart #outsiderartist #northcarolina #atlasobscura #ipulledoverforthis #roadsideamericana #roadsideamerica #anothersouthernroadsideattraction

Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier Galveston, Texas Originally built in the 1943, but in 1961 Hurricane Carla completely destroyed it, then later in 2008, Hurricane Ike severely damaged it too, and in 2017 Hurricane Harvey battered it with wind and waves.  In 2009, Landry’s, Inc. began renovations on the new Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier. Landry’s vision recaptured the site’s original purpose as a pleasure pier.. It opened in 2012. #galvestonislandhistoricpleasurepier #galvestonisland #galvestonistx #galvestonistexas #amusementpark #amusementparks #amusementpier #amusementpiers #touristattraction #touristattractions #roadsidepeek #roadsideamerica #sillyamerica #roadsideamericana #oddballu #oddballuniversity #weirdtexas #scaroadside #atlasobscura #roadsideattraction #roadsideattractions #oddlysatisfying #pleasurepier #pleasurepier🎡

Meet 'Curt', a fearsome looking raptor but really quite friendly once you get to know him. He was named after Curt Blanchette, who did maintenance on all of the assorted dinos in Drumheller. Speaking of which, congrats to Drumheller and the Jurassic Jamboree yesterday! The town invited people to come visit and dress up in a dino costume. They were hoping to break the old record of 252 people dressed up as dinos and it appears they smashed it! Official results won't be known for a while but judging by the pictures it looks certain they did it. My only regret is that I wasn't there. Maybe next time but until then I hope everyone has a great week! #roadsideattraction #roadsideattractions #roadsidecanada #roadsideamerica #roadsideamericana #roadiseoddities #roadtrip2022 #insearchofquirk #dinoart #curtthedino

This ghost sign packs a great one-two punch with a layer of Ivory Soap and another of Cubanola Cigars. I particularly love the bright blue Cubanola ads, so this was probably pretty great looking in its day. ❤️👈🏻 𝕿𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖝 𝖋𝖔𝖗 𝕽𝖊𝖆𝖉𝖎𝖓𝖌 #ghostsign #ghostad #americana #roadsideattraction #roadsideamericana #roadtripping #roadtrip #explore #ipulledoverforthis #vintageadvertising #sign #oldadvertising #vintagead #vintagesigns #signgeeks #vintagesign #mtcarmel #pennsylvania #smalltownamerica #cubanolacigars #ivorysoap

A view of the old historic section of Albuquerque NM, with lit up luminarias (candles) along the city streets.
