World's Largest Concrete Pecan

The World's Largest Concrete Pecan, Brunswick, MO, still sits where the James' built it in '82. However, the flood of '94 washed away most of the paint, and now it looks like a suppository, or maybe a turd, as my friend ReBecca thinks. The James are in ailing health -- George sounded very sick when I interviewed him.
