find Mattson.
would love to see the pic(s).

didn't know about the Venturo.
check out this abandoned Taiwanese village full of the things. Futuros & Venturos.

venturo | Tumblr


whatup Caliiiii. not up to the challenge? Googie should be an easy one for youz.

NEXT CHALLENGE: YBNT Googie architecture.
The exaggerated style is appropriately exemplified in the The Jetsons cartoons. (so if it is futuristic, it will work)

had to look it up to see what exactly I was looking at.
I would definitely say a pod structure would be considered modern / futuristic.

so nice get Spdyg_AK. let's play on.

NEXT CHALLENGE: YBNT a billboard or big ad for high speed Internet

Mattson, still got the Venturo?

Thanks guys. It's a funky looking structure- toms of metal and brick in crazy shapes. I haven't been inside yet. I think it opened last year.

That sounds like a great trip, bee!

Check out what I got yesterday- custom decal, mostly for the novelty, I don't really expect anyone to read it in a rear view mirror but...

Googie challenge revisited: The Venturo, right beside the museum/Ace Corner. Doesn`t even look like a building from this angle...



At least a little more from the side. Needs a LOT of work, but it`s getting there...



Tried to look, but no internet ads currently on the billboards, so:

CURRENT CHALLENGE: YBNT a billboard or big ad for high speed Internet

And yes, I know the bike is filthy...Washed it first thing when I got home...
