Shoe Tree in Alabama

I found a shoe tree in Alabama!
It is not that easy to find. During the summer the leaves obscure the view of the shoes.
This is located on Hwy 72 West close to Cherokee, Al. Go past the Natchez Trace and just before you get to the Mississippi/Alabama border, it is on the right.
 
 
I wonder who started this and why.


There are so many shoes and they cannot all be from the same person.

 
I wanted to get in on the action...

Hey COW!

I heard about this great game to play while traveling! The instructions are here.
Basically on your trip you look for cows. When you see a group/one roll down the window and yell "Hey COW!" you get one point for every cow that turns and looks at you.

This is going to be one of those games that could start a traveling tradition. I can see Atlas yelling at cows where ever he goes.

It may have spin offs like hey dog, cat, horse, or hey you! How fun would it be to yell "Hey you!" at the mall just to see how many people look; one point per person.

Eisenhower Interstate System

In this post I commented that I was not sure what the Eisnehower Interstate System was and that I would look it up.
In short, it is the interstate system of the United States. It is called the Eisenhower Interstate System because he is the person who made it happen.

The Eisenhower Interstate System has been called "the greatest public works project in history."

It seems like something interesting and something to look into further. ;)
More fun on the Eisenhower Interstate System soon I am sure.
