And then, finally, it was off to the catalyst for the trip; Ripley’s Believe or Not, and the Big Ball of Twine. The ticket gal warned us that the gift shop would close before we were done with the museum, and we didn’t really care, but just in case, Mary asked “Do you sell something like a small ball of twine? Like the world’s smallest big ball of twine?” No, she said, “But we do have a two headed bobble calf.” And now, so do we. And so do a few of our friends. Sorry to ruin the surprise.

And the ball itself? What do we say except…we are in awe. Our accomplishments are so minor, in comparison.

And yes, yes, we know there are many places that claim to have the Biggest Ball of Twine but this is the only one on our route so leave us alone.
