I rode by this contraption a few weekends ago on my way to Fort Ancient, but sadly I didn't stop and snap a pic with the STeed

The Futuro House, Carlisle

This short-lived design for a space-age abode lives on in Carlisle, Ohio.

Good for you !

I've seen suspect "old school" photos posted here, without a bike.

We have a similar "saucer house" up in north-kinda-east Texas ... let me see if I can find it ...

EDIT: sure enough, it's a Futuro house

There are two of these behemoths just a couple of miles up the road from my office. Also the Giant Artichoke just up the street.

Install Google Lens on your smartphone... open it up then add a photo to it ... Lens will identify what it is ... I get about 97% accuracy with it ... Lens identified that statue when Joe posted it to the A-Z game

You can use Lens to identify almost anything, like labels on cans, vehicles, plants, trees, furniture, animals, insects, ad nauseum ...
