Annapolis, Maryland: Windmill with Winged Pigs and Guitars
A restaurant changed owners, and menus, but there was no sense bulldozing a mildly eye-catching architectural icon like a windmill -- so it was updated with rockin' BBQ porkers hanging on its blades.

Pigs with wings playing guitars. Well ok. The BBQ place is still there. A windmill building is always cool. You can see it from the highway, not easy to get to if you want to take photos. There is also a fun little ice cream stand in the parking lot.

The windmill was cool to look at -- we were driving that way.

Has been other things before but it is currently the Red, Hot, and Blue restaurant. Great eats!
[Jen Storey, 04/13/2010]Maybe a barbeque place? Passed it at 70 mph in a rainstorm. The windmill was a battered Don Quixote type, pretty big. Sitting on each blade was a winged pig holding a blue guitar. [RA: This has been ID'd by James Lehman as a "Red Hot and Blue Barbecue" restaurant, a franchise that specializes in Tennesee BBQ. "The building used to be the Old Mill Pancake House.]
