The Leaning Tower of Texas. Story goes the Tower was installed by Ralph Britten, who used it as a gimmick to get motorists on the old stretch of Route 66 to stop at his truck stop. If you're into roadside oddities it's well worth a few minutes of your day to stop, check it out and pop off a few pictures.

We found this grass fire just off of Route 66, and had to pull over to photograph it. And, I think this scene actually would have worked even without it. Classic Americana.
