My sister's home in Ravenswood I call the Greater Chicago Museum of Good God! Where did she find that thing! I have been contributing to the collection for years. I sent her an Elvis Presley clock for her birthday. The legs swing back and forth.
She and a friend discovered Mr. Ed's Elephant Museam in Gettysburg PA. You get in free if you bring an elephant.

My mother used to take tours up to St. Anthony's Chapel, in Troy Hill, home of the world's largest collection of holy relics.

Now, I go to the Ligonier Highland Games at Idlewild Park, a pleasantly tacky amusement park in Pennsylvania's Laurel Highlands.
Then there are Rennaissence Faires. Tacky tacky tacky. But I rather enjoy them.
I saw a musical Nutcracker, performed by only slightly gifte amateurs, who were having the time of their lives. It was likewise takcy, but I did enjoy it.
Incidentally, if you're out that way, the Greensburg Garden and Civic center has a nice little auditorium.
OH! How could I forget! The Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorial here in Pittsburgh, a nineteenth century marble monstrosity, used as the Shelby County Courthouse in "The Silence of the Lambs". They also have a nice BIG auditorium, the best accoustics in town for my money, though the music hall at the Carnegie Library, also pretty outrageous, has good accoustics too. Andrew Carnegie brought Lillian Russell out to test them when the hall was under construction.
