This road trip is dragging on for hours. Highway construction slowed
your progress through the last town and there is a funny smell coming
from the air conditioner. The family is getting hungry, fuel is
getting low, and it isn’t just the car that needs a pit stop at this
point. Fortunately, the billboards have been telling you about an
approaching roadside oasis every five miles for the last fifty. A
place to stop and unwind, let the dog run around and walk the kids. A
place for food and fuel and maybe even a photo with the oversized
roadside attraction.
This week’s project is to map roadside attractions. They are the huge
fibreglass apple or World’s biggest lobster or an oversized Canada
goose, placed to be visible from the highway, and attached to a fast
food joint and probably a gift shop.
