Since I travel alot for work I sometimes run across neat items, places, monuments, and buildings. The best ones deal with our hobby, or have ties to it. Today traveling in Galesburg IL on the side streets I seen this advertisement for Durham tobacco. Sorry had to take 2 pics.

If you got em show em.

If you get to Huntington West Virginia, St. Clouds commons is one of the few remaining wood grandstands in America. It was built in 1910, the year after T206s came out.

Not much ball playing goes on there anymore. Bring your glove and your son is my best advice.
