If you just got laid off or quit your job, are in love, or have nothing better to do, there’s no time like now for an exciting adventure across America the beautiful — with a few special destination stops along the way.
TIME magazine put together 50 must-see attractions scattered across the US. Some are quirky, others magical, but most are just plain silly things you don’t see everyday.

Here are my top 10 fav’s:
1. The Beer-Can House, Houston, Texas.
2. Shoe Tree, near Middlegate, Nev.
3. Mystery Spot, Santa Cruz, Calif.
4. Cabazon Dinosaurs, Cabazon, Calif.
5. Cadillac Ranch, Amarillo, Texas
6. Forbidden Gardens, Katy, Texas.
7. Gorilla Holding a VW Bug, Leicester, Vt.
8. World’s Largest Buffalo, Jamestown, N.D.
9. World’s Smallest Church, Syracuse, N.Y.
10. Graceland Too, Holly Springs, Miss.
