TAH DAH! BIG BRUTUS. It's unimaginable!

Jul 28 Saturday Only drove 154 miles today.

Big Brutus in W.Mineral KS

… Pictures speak louder than words, especially with this big "guy".

That's me in the lower right. 

Look closely & you will see two other people on the left.

We never would have even KNOWN about this THING if it hadn't been for our visit to the Chisholm Trail Museum back in Wellington, KS. & our chat with the manager there.

He brought out a map to show us where a few interesting attractions were that we might enjoy visiting.

Big Brutus was one of them as well as the Dalton Defenders Museum.

 

You can barely see me.

This is about as high up as I'll get on this beautiful monster!

Joey on his way up to the control booth or whatever ya call it!

It was a long climb up there but he does it all.

On the road to Brutus no one would have been able to imagine how truly huge he is:

Here's the link to Brutus' website where it's story is told along with statistics on his weights & measurements. http://www.bigbrutus.org/about.html
