oh, YES, kendall! I stumbled into "South of the Border" late one night...wow...I think it beats Wall Drug...though I have not been to Wall Drug for 30 years,,

but the shows and 'holiday decor' at Silver Dollar City are truly...ummm..'special...

also...the original inspiration for Malvina Reynold's "Little Boxes" (made of ticky-tacky)! I flew out of San Francisco in about 1972 and took photos of the rows of multi-colored pastel houses in cute rows on the hillside. Makes you wonder..............
