Littlerock, California: Charlie Brown Farms - Dinosaurs, Meat on a Stick

It's a place to take you down Memory Lane. If you like the selection in the gift shop at Cracker Barrel restaurants, this is an entire store like that, only on steroids! You have a selection of sodas and candy that is legendary. Being from Wisconsin, I found a large supply of Sprecher sodas from Milwaukee. For those that live on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, they do carry Barq's in the glass bottle, but they were out when we visited. And they have plenty of variations of A&W Root Beer in different bottles.

There is a diner, dinosaur exhibit, and more. Charlie Brown Farms is quirky and fun.

Licorice lovers rejoice -- Charlie Brown has Double Salt AND Sea Salt Licorice! the candy selection is incredible, you are almost guaranteed to find and old and a new favorite.

Charlie Brown Farms is my favorite place to stop on the way to Vegas or Laughlin from California. When you hit the tiny town of Pearblossom, on your left you will see a little red building with a big sign that says "Home of the date shake and exotic meats on a stick," with a picture of a bull. There are statues of velociraptors and other dinos.

The main room is full of rare sodas, candies, and goodies -- they have over 125 flavors of milkshakes. There's are gift shops and a statue warehouse.
