As I rode down 20 Mule Team Road, I was welcomed by friendly Boron. |
The forthcoming Aero Space Museum probably has something to do with Boron's proximity to Edwards Air Force Base. |
Every town that has one seems to love to display big tires. The height of the building next door gives some idea of this tire's size. |
Maybe that tire would fit on this huge truck. The building in the background serves as a point of reference. |
I wondered which of these items were antiques and which were museum pieces. |
This mural depicts one of the legendary 20 mule teams that transported boron across the desert to the railhead at Mojave. |
Unfortunately, the barrel-shaped Dinky's was closed. According to this site, Dinky's probably used to be an A& W Root Beer stand. |
The Aero Space Museum wasn't open yet, but at least Boron had one jet. |
