A garden center or nursery.....Paul 2
A deer, a rabbit, and a flamingo walk into a bar...
The deer asks the bartender, "Do you have any jobs?"
The bartender says, "Why don't you try the circus?"
The deer replies, "Why would the circus need a bartender?"

It's really simple, it's a garden center of a Menards store

The flamingo did it! My front yard on April Fools day! LOL
Why did the Flamingo cross the road ??
To be with the other flamingos? LOL

To get on the other side.
I have long since given up, but hope all so far are wrong, and that it is something "railroady", and industrial.....
Really enjoy the cars and accessories at Menards especially for what you're getting at that price point. I first learned of these thanks to ericstrains reviews.

To show the woodchucks it could be done.
Hey Menards, how about a building block plant with fork lifts loading trucks, a few stacks of blocks (called cubes) and a siding for a cement hopper. Of course the building would be built of of its own product and it would need a tall smoke stack. Add a laborer or two and a supervisor and you have a scene. Modelers could add a cinder pile and bucket loader. Such a building would be timeless since these plants haven't changed much in appearance over the years. Even small towns have them. What think ye?
A scale Cypress Gardens? I'm in!
What Gilly said!
Jacks lawn ornament emporium.....
I hope this new offering is as good as the Trinity Church! Just got mine and it is terrific, especially at the money! My new favorite after Setter's!

Its missing lighted marker lights.
My mother-in-law in Vicksburg Mississippi had a neighbor that had a yard display of Santa in a sleigh, holding the baby Jesus, being pulled by 8 pink Flamingos, so maybe it's Santa's sleigh on a flatcar?!?!
I'm stilling waiting for this:
Something related to a garden, as mentioned above. I remember my grandmother used to go to great strides to keep the deer and rabbits out of her garden and she had those plastic flamingos throughout the flower beds when I was a young boy.

No, TBA - To Be Announced. It has already been determined by Menards!
This may make a good wall structure
I believe we should be hearing something today.
A zoo or petting farm.
To be deer-termined.

Cripple Creek Garden Center sounds logical to me as those would be items found within one.
Im thinking a Game Farm Park. With a Brewery and UFO invaders!
Still with the brewery Bro? Good to know nothing has changed! LOL
A suburban house with a pink flamingo sculpture in front? The Rabbits and deer authentically eat any plants you have out.
I hoping for a Hunting Lodge , hunting cabin , Food processing plant, Feed & Seed Store .
Cocktail Lounge...The Pink Flamingo or maybe a Tiki Bar.
A casino?
An exotic meats restaurant?

Goin’ Up the Country: Camper Vic’s Secret Hideaway by Menards! Shop Now>
Dimensions: 12”W x 8”D x 3-1/2”H
Almost everyone has a spot in mind, where they could hop in the car and head to for a little "getaway" in order to recharge from day-to-day life. The Camper Scene from Menards allows you to bring that little piece of heaven to your O gauge layout! The scene is 12-inches wide, 8-inches deep, and rises 3-½ inches tall. This is perfectly sized to fit right into a forest scene or lakeside setting.
The basics: This is a sculpted scene of a semi-developed campsite complete with details affirming it as a weekend hideaway! The molded accessory is fully assembled and decorated and features an Airstream-style trailer with interior lighting and a vintage pickup truck with illuminated headlights.
The Camp scene is designed for use with the Menards 4.5 volt Plug & Play system including the Menards nos. 279-4361, 279-4362, or 279-4050. You may wish to consider the no. 279-4681 9-piece Plug & Play accessory kit to serve multiple structures and vehicles. All are available separately.
Why you need this: This hideaway may remind you of a camping spot in the woods, or a patch near the lake for fishing. The sculpted base has tall grass that seems to be bending with the wind. Blue and white wildflowers are scattered here and there, and two-piece a log fence with a red birdfeeder mounted on one post.
Need more proof this is a regularly visited site? There is a picnic table right next to a flowerbed made of four tires of assorted sizes. There is a well-worn patch to the flowerbed suggesting regular watering! Another dirt path leads to the trailer, passing two pink flamingo lawn ornaments. Certainly someone with a wry sense of humor owns the plot!
Local critters abound with deer, a bunny rabbit, and some Cardinals hoping someone refills the feeder soon! And Jack? Our favorite German shepherd is living the good life and has his very own doghouse to keep watch!
The focal point is the pickup-trailer combo. The trailer salutes the riveted aluminum Airstream travel trailers introduced in the 1930s. The trailer has plenty of rivets, windows, and two cast-in vents on the roof. When powered up, the lights illuminate with a pleasing yellow hue.
The pickup truck suggests a late 1950s or early 1960s model with a streamlined design and cab that leans slightly forward. The truck is red with yellow windows and white and silver trim. Headlights pop on whenever the scene is powered up.
There is no end to how you can personalize this scene. You can add spare detail pieces and camping figures to the plot. You may add additional greenery as well. Want to add a bit of forest flash? The base comes with pre-drilled holes on the base to add trees, sold separately. You can order a six-piece pack of fall trees (no. 279-3637) or nine-piece pack of green trees (no. 279-3094) for $14.99 each.
Camper Vic’s Secret Hideaway is another unique addition to your O gauge layout that will spur smile of anyone noticing it, perhaps bringing up memories are the old fishing ole or an annual Summer trek to mountains!
Very nice, I could put this near my hobo camp, not to close as it will look great surrounded by trees. Very nice great work as Menards does it again thinking out of the box.
