Muffler Men at the Greenhouse In an unincorporated area of McHenry, there are two Muffler Men. One has a beard and is wearing a green short sleeve shirt with blue plaid trim, with tan pants held up with suspenders. Both arms are waist high with one hand up and the other down.
The other is an Indian, bare chested, with light tan pants and he has two side braids. One arm is raised up high as if to signal "stop."

Muffler Man and Indian I almost didn't stop... thank goodness I did! At The Greenhouse of Crystal Lake on Route 31, I only saw the Indian when I first passed. On the way back, there was a muffler man sporting a pair of hanging flower baskets.

Muffler Men at Ozzie Water Park The Ozzie Water Park closed for the season last fall and will not be re-opening. It is being razed to make way for a Whole Foods. Not sure of any plans for the muffler men located there. As of 5/16 they were still there.
