CLOWN MUSEUM

[Shroom]

With a villa called HARLEQUIN I am always on the lookout for clown and pierot nicknacks (tasteful of course)
I was thrilled to find RUSHMORE on HWY 27 Sth around the Lake Hamilton area.
I stopped with my friend at Mill gift shop (they have a really good restaurant and while my friend consumed a beer (I was on tea) I spied a new Warehouse right by. Asked the server to be told that it was a new CLOWN MUSEUM and shop....closed on monday i was back there on Tuesday early.
Clown Jacky gave us a 90min personal tour. What a labour of love. The collection spans 45 years as a clown and was absolutely wonderful. Just opened and well worth the visit.
$10 entrance fee is taken off if you spend more than $20.
i managed to buy a wonderful Pierot painting ($35)for my Master bedroom but my friend has her eye on a wonderful porcelaine painting of a Pierot clown....well she did until she was told it was $1650.

As my biggest fear is clowns I dont think this would be really appropriate for me!!! I cant imagine anything worse than being in a room surrounded by the things!!! Think this comes from watching Stephen King's IT at an early age!!!
