Georgia Guidestones

By: kjfitz.
The Georgia Guidestones are a huge granite artifact located on a hilltop in Elbert County, Georgia, USA. It is sometimes referred to as the "American Stonehenge", a title which has been applied at times to a number of other structures. A message comprising ten guides is inscribed on the structure in eight modern languages, and a shorter message is inscribed at the top of the structure in four ancient scripts: Babylonian, Classical Greek, Sanskrit, and Egyptian Hieroglyphs.
The artifact is almost twenty feet (6m) tall, and made from six granite slabs weighing more than 100 tons in all. One slab stands in the center, with four arranged around it. A capstone lies on top of the five slabs, which are astronomically aligned. An additional stone tablet, which is set in the ground a short distance to the west of the structure, provides some clarifying notes on the history and purpose of the Guidestones.

Rock Eagle Effigy Mound
Parabellum (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: Parabellum.
Rock Eagle Effigy Mound... consists of thousands of pieces of quartzite laid in the shape of a large bird.
Rock Eagle was once thought to be as much as 5,000 years old. While there is strong evidence that the area was occupied by Archaic Indians at that time it is unlikely that they created the mound. Current archaeology suggests that it was built between 1,000 and 3,000 years ago by Woodland Indians.

'Wisconsin Welcomes You'

These large wooden signs greet visitors on many of the main roads entering the state, although they are not usually placed at the state line, but rather a mile or more beyond the border.
The signs feature a Wisconsin shaped sign framed by three logs. On the logs, the words "Recreation", "Industry", and "Agriculture" are written.
Just north of this sign is an historical marker honoring the 32nd Red Arrow Division serving in World War I and World War II.

Champion Park Speedway
1/4 mile clay oval track created in 1993. Several classes of stock cars and modifieds race here on Saturday nights. It previously went by the name Webster Speedway.
This track appears to have been closed since the 2011 season. The track's web site is down. I have been unable to find a single online news article detailing what happened to cause this closure. This is not uncommon in the deep south.
Feel free to leave a comment below if this place reopens.

Herbie (born 1963 in Wolfsburg, Germany) is a fictional character, an anthropomorphic Volkswagen Beetle, which is featured in several Disney motion pictures starting with the 1968 film, The Love Bug.

Herbie is distinguished by red, white and blue racing stripes from front to back bumper and a racing-style number "53" on the front hood, doors, and engine lid.

Astrophysical Institute Potsdam (AIP) is a German research institute. It is the successor of the Berlin Observatory founded in 1700 and of the Astrophysical Observatory Potsdam founded in 1874. The latter was the world's first observatory to emphasize explicitly the research area of astrophysics.
The key topics of the AIP are cosmic magnetic fields and extragalactic astrophysics. A considerable part of the institute's efforts aim at the development of research technology in the fields of spectroscopy, robotic telescopes, and e-science.
