Following lunch, we hooked up with another local guide for a walk through the area north of Findlay Market. Some workmen along the way tipped us off to a nearby oddity so we veered a little off course to check out a three level brick privy. The development of structural steel and the elevator are usually credited with the birth of the skyscraper but I'm thinking that indoor plumbing had something to do with it, too. Back on course, we looked over the Jackson Brewery lagering cellars. These were dug into the hillside so we were able to enter from street level without the need for a ladder or stairs.

I had never even heard of this 1958 diner in Alexandria, Kentucky, but several of the out of town attendees were fairly familiar with it. It has appeared in a couple of movies including 2014's "Carol". The diner was actually closed during the filming but has since reopened with new owners and a slightly Christian tone. The Spare-Time name and neon will remain but it is now Spare-Time's Belly & Soul. The coconut cream pie was excellent.

I didn't take many pictures of the actual exhibits on this visit. I did grab a shot of the outside signs that I rarely see lit since I'm normally here during daylight. The dark letters in "motel" show that even a museum can have difficulty keeping all the neon working all the time.
