Karen and Lee Duquette think it is fun to watch tall, wiggly dudes that
keep flopping around and can not stand up straight. It always makes
Karen Duquette giggle. |

Along the interstate on the south side at mile marker
71 at the Cove Road Overpass, on Rolling Hills Drive in Wytheville,
Virginia, a municipal water tower is painted to resemble a rainbow-striped
hot air balloon with attached basket. It is also visible from I-81 but
not directly accessible off that interstate. It is tucked into a nice
little neighborhood. |

Below: The big pencil is about 2 miles on Route 11 (Main Street) off
of I-81 and I-77 exit 73 - Or I-81 Exit 70, then take N 4th St. to Main
St. Wytheville Office Supply. The About 2 miles on Route 11 (Main Street)
off of I-81 and I-77 exit 73. Or I-81 Exit 70, then take N 4th St. to
Main St. Wytheville Office Supply. The impressive scribbler points down
to the entrance of the office supply store, frightening those who fear
impalement by a big pencil.
Neither Lee nor Karen Duquette realized that inside the office supply
store, there is the world's largest working incisors and they are said
to give a free post card of the pencil. Considering all the travel they
have done, you would think they would research something like this before
leaving the area. But they did not! Bummer! |

in the door and window. |
