Ooh, is that what these are called? (A little blurry so I hadn't posted them to flickr, and I didn't really know where to start id'ing, partly because I assumed they were mushrooms :-) Along a trail edge just off the Nashua River, Oxbow NWR in Harvard MA.

I don't work in Boston these days, but I'll still #rainbow post when the opportunity arises
Hmm, I never got around to tagging the pics in my archive, but here are some Dayton highlights - even though the museum is multiple *huge* buildings, they're each pretty crowded (SR-71 and lifting body "tucked in" next to the Valkyrie.) And yet you can get *very* close...

From the phone number, it's speed plumbing in denver; local.yahoo.com/info-2268454... has s.yimg.com/bj/4fd2/4fd2... a version with a different license plate and "we repair what your husband fixed" - but I'd believe that's just an older truck...

That's a serious pretzel. Boston area's Red Heat Tavern (also in CT) has a "BIG A** PRETZEL" (no really, the punctuation is on the menu redheattavern.com/red-heat-ame... ) which is thinner but maybe wider?
