You pretty much have to have come right past me! I think I might have to go get the prairie chicken photo of my foamy. That is AWESOME!

Thanks Guys and Gals !
The Big Pink pulled flawlessly, the only mishap was a interior light bulb vibrated loose, fell to the floor and broke. ;)
The tires and hubs only barely got warm (90 - 110 degrees per my HF thermal reader)

UPDATE:
The worlds largest Prairie Dog has now closed permanently, making this one the worlds largest. :roll:

OH NO! PRAIRIE DOG TOWN IS CLOSED?!?

"See the two headed cow", "See the 6 legged calf", "Pet the baby 'rattlers'

I loved that place, would stop there every time when driving back to Denver. My kids got a bit tired of it after the first half dozen stops or so.

So I found a rusted out Radio Flyer wagon on the curb...
Pulled the wheels and axles off, some plywood, a little paint and some new hardware.
