A store with a map!

Troy just got back from Nevada where he was attending a week long corrosion prevention school. While he was there he decided to take advantage of all the shopping to buy Christmas presents. He thoroughly enjoyed calling me to let me know which store he was in this time. Of course, I am sitting at home going crazy. As you know, I am the shopper of the family, so it was hard to sit back and let him take that over! Especially hearing about all the cool places he was getting to go. Like Cabelas. He was in heaven as he walked through the store. He has never been to one of their establishments before so he was quite impressed. And then he found Scheel's. He walked in and stood there staring in awe. He stood there for so long that eventually a nice little old lady employee came up to him and asked him if he was okay and then offered him a

MAP OF THE STORE!!

Yes, you read that right. This store was so huge that it needed a map. The kind like you see at the mall that has a little star that says "You are here" Only this was a paper map that you could carry around with you. So you wouldn't get lost. And so you knew where you were!

Here is Scheel's from the outside...

And here is one of the bronze statues outside the store.....
This is the full size ferris wheel inside the store!!!!

And this is the Nascar simulator that Troy drove a few times

Troy as a Nascar driver. He feels like his life is complete now!!

Yes, this is a full size float plane hanging inside the store

Another bronze statue outside the store

And what store is complete without it's giant aquarium?!

This was Troy's dinner one night. He enjoyed every bite. Andrew took one look at this picture and wistfully said, "Oh, that looks GOOD! I want one of those!" I feel you, Andrew!!

This was at Cabela's in their safari section. I thought it was so cool!

And this one gives you goose bumps! Ghost in the Darkness anyone?
