9. You pass the (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _) of the All-American (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _) and note that the highway department employees are on the ball as all the traffic (_ _ _ _ _) stand like pointy rubber soldiers lined up for inspection.

12. After getting some film of the newest jets, you swing past the railroad (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _) tower that was added a few years ago where an old (_ _ _ _ _) tower with a wood tank once stood.  There’s still a small (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _) here for freight.
13. “(_ _ _ _ _ _) light or (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _) lamp?” you wonder to yourself as you pass the many graceful globe-topped green devices along the road to the (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _) store.  Your friend asked you to purchase a few things there while you were tooling around in his vehicle.
14. Heading back to the market, you pass the small three-room (_ _ _ _ _) and note that it’s a good thing you don’t need a bed as the “NO VACANCY” sign is lit.  Although the “NO” part of the neon struggles to do so.  There’s a cute little wishing (_ _ _ _) in the garden out front of the office that looks like it was dropped right out of a storybook.
15. Back at the market now, your friend says he had a great day and as you cross the big steel (_ _ _ _ _ _ _) (_ _ _ _ _ _) over the river your companion notes that trains used to use it before a line relocation.  But you think to yourself “I’m not here to shoot ‘The Bridges of Plasticville County’” as you head back for some great (_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _) cooked on the brick hearth you helped construct on a previous visit.  “The ribs always seem better when they’re grilled in Plasticville U.S.A.” you think to yourself hungrily.  “He had better have saved some of that corn too!”  It is a holiday weekend after all!
