MR. ED'S ELEPHANT MUSEUM AND ROUTE 30

I ran across a certain Mr. Ed during some site visits in Pennsylvania. It turns out that this Mr. Ed has nothing to do with the talking horse of early television fame. Mr. Ed is the local celebrity of Mr. Ed's Elephant Museum and Fudge Shop in PA, outside of Gettysburg. He claims to have the largest and most unique collections of elephants in the world. And, I would concur. I've never seen anything like it. The shop is a collection of elephants, old fashioned peanuts, and candy. In addition to his own elephant claim to fame, Mr. Ed took a little feature role in the independent film, "Route 30."
