    There is also that great tourist trap out by the interstate. Forget its name though, but it looks like a fort from the outside.

    Fort Cody, one of my favorite stops on the Lincoln Highway! http://www.fortcody.com

    Cool mix of stuff and super-nice owners. I wrote about their family’s “roadside empire” of similar attractions for the next American Road magazine.
