  Moorestown, New Jersey - Flexible Flyer Museum

  Over a 100 years of Flexible Flyer sleds are on display. A man collected them, and when he passed away he left his collection to the public library, where the sleds are on permanent display! This is free to see and it is very interesting to learn the history of how it all began: from farm equipment to a sled?

  [shawn curry, 02/16/2020]

  Samuel Leeds Allen of Moorestown invented the Flexible Flyer sled in 1889 to give his farm equipment employees something to build and sell in the winter (The sleds were tested on Moorestown's Stokes Hill). This collection has been displayed in the Library since 2015.

  Scottsville, Kentucky - Shopping Center Tomb of Miss Dynamite

  Interesting roadside find. The tomb is self-explained, with Miss Dynamite's bio engraved onto the top of it. At the top of the shopping center sign is a portrait of Miss Dynamite herself! We were lucky enough to have a helpful local give us the full story of her life and just how important this pup was.
