Tiny Town's Giant Hot Dog

We were driving through Colorado this year and took a picture of the hot dog stand in Conifer. A little farther east on 285 is Tiny Town, a collection of small houses and buildings. There's a tiny giant hot dog amongst the buildings. I grew up in Denver and the hot dog stand used to be in Denver before being moved to it's present location. Tiny Town has been there for about 80 years . I was pleasantly surprised it was still there for me to show my daughter.
