not only does it offer an ice cream shop called the milken parlor, it features a miniature golf course: hillbilly holes.
i do not know what other wonders it offers. museum of regrettable dentistry? jailbreak jamboree? greased cousin races?
i may never know. but at least this time we stopped long enough to get a picture. (click the tiny image above.)
