We were interested to see all of the giant Longaberger baskets. This basket sits in the middle of a small town, looking deserted and falling apart. What a shame. I find them unique. Drive slow on Main Street or you will drive right past it.

This was fun. The whole town is in love with baskets. Just park and walk around and you will know what I am talking about very quickly.

The original headquarters for Longaberger Baskets. Labor Day weekend they have a nice car show for free on Main Street.
