The Burger Hut
Parabellum (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: Parabellum.
The Burger Hut is a quirky and colorful downtown Butler dining institution that serves handpacked, grilled to order burgers and that Western PA carb-lover's favorite -- french fries with your choice of gravy or chili. While there are other items on the menu, I suggest you stick with the burgers and fries if you want to partake in the true flavor of this place.

Automotive Enviro Testing
Parabellum (VirtualGlobetrotting)

Less than 50 miles from the Canadian border lies Baudette, Minnesota, population 1,084. If the combination of ice fishing, heavy drinking and frozen extremities isn't your thing, the whole region is of little interest. But just outside the town proper lies one of the most advanced cold-weather testing facilities on the planet. It's also a hoon's heaven.
Automotive Enviro Testing (AET) is the creation of Larry Larson, an alfalfa farmer by trade and man made up of the most hardened Minnesotan stock. Back in 1993, Larson purchased the 780-acre swath of frozen desolation from the Feds once the U.S. Air Force's radar base was decommissioned after a 40-year run keeping tabs on the Ruskies. The massive radar stand remains, but the rest of the facility is a modern engineering masterpiece.

Buddhist statue that survived Hiroshima atomic bomb
kjfitz (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: kjfitz.
"Fifteen feet tall, made of bronze, this statue of Buddhist teacher Shinran Shonin shows him wearing a big peasant hat and holding a wood staff. There are many, similar statues of Shonin around the world, but this one stood only 1.5 miles from the center of the nuclear blast that leveled Hiroshima in 1945. It's survival -- unscathed, from all appearances -- was regarded as miraculous at the time.
Ten years afterward, a Japanese industrialist took the statue and shipped it to New York City, where it was erected outside of a storefront Buddhist temple on Manhattan's posh Upper West Side. It's still there today. According to its plaque, the bombproof Buddhist serves as "a testimonial to the atomic bomb devastation and a symbol of lasting hope for world peace," although not many people know about it. "

Felton Covered Bridge
neotrix (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: neotrix.
Built in 1892-93 and believed to be the tallest covered bridge in the county, it stood as the only entry to Felton for 45 years. In 1937 it was retired from active service to become a pedestrian bridge and figured prominently in many films of that period. After suffering damage in the winter storms of 1982, it was restored to its original elegance in 1987 using native materials and local talent.
