It would be great for someone to look at roadside museums...fun for the
researcher, too! But I'd be surprised if somebody out there hasn't already
done something about them.
 
Guess this qualifies as a "roadside museum": my favorite is the Desert O' Maine
museum near Freeport, ME. There's this farm that supposedly has been
covered over completely with sand. All you see are the roofs, etc. What a
hoot! As you exit (through the gift shop, of course), you get to view the
Sand Museum, a collection of samples of sand from all over the world in vials.
I loved this place.
