The Thing?

The construction surrounding The Thing? has been completed. The new building has a Dairy Queen inside. The gift shop is amazing. If you are a fan of "Dia de Muertos" Day of the Dead decor, it offers plenty of souvenirs and items of home decor!

Didn't take a look at the Thing, but did stop to walk through the very unique gift shop. They are very dog-friendly and let me walk my dog through the shop.

Painted footprints lead to THE THING. I have some photos of THE THING, but I will keep the secret.
