Bob and I met up with our friends Linda and Chuck to visit Tinkertown together on Friday. We got a chuckle out of this sign in the parking lot.
Some of the walls of the buildings have bottles imbedded in them, and Ross used thousands of bottles of all kinds.
Many of the displays are animated. There is a whole Wild West town complete with inhabitants, food on the tables and goods in the general store.
I enjoyed the Emmett Kelly display.
Outside we saw a medicine man's horse-drawn wagon and a car covered in coins and trinkets.According to a nearby sign, Ross worked on the car as a substitute for being able to drive after his illness left him unable to be safe behind the wheel.
Linda and I poked along ahead of the men, going at our own pace.
Even Auggie enjoyed Tinkertown, posing for a photograph for us.
Auggie and Linda's dog, Henry, had a good time playing until puppy exuberance resulted in Auggie putting his new friend in his place. He flipped Henry onto his back and told him enough was enough. Henry wasn't hurt at all but I think his feelings were!
All in all, a wonderful day with good friends.
