Curiosities

 Exotic Animal Wagon

On the edge of a farm northwest of Toronto, someone has a collection of curiosities for all passersby to see.  The exotic animal inside the wagon is a kid's stuffed animal - a tiger.

At the foot of the driveway

Both the phone booth and Coke machine are empty but I think the booth may be used as a school bus shelter.

    The wagon is an amazing, fascinating style. And strange to see a booth and Coke machine together.

    No coke at this stop, that is unless there's a plug in the booth. :-)

    I love that old wagon! A kid's stuffed animal being in there is much better than a real tiger ever was.

    There was an animal wagon like that for sale at the end of a driveway along Hwy 9 a couple of years ago, I wonder if it's the same one!

    If that is a bus shelter, it is the smallest one I have seen.

    What a great find. What a school bus shelter. Better than being out in the wind I guess.
