Hat 'n' Boots at Oxbow Park

A 44-foot-wide cowboy hat and two 22-foot cowboy boots, once billed as the largest of their kind in America, sit incongruously in a small Georgetown park. They started life in 1954 as a Western-themed Texaco gas station, where the office hid under the hat and the two boots held the restrooms. After the station was abandoned, the city moved the rotting structures to Oxbow Park in 2003 and finished restoring them in 2010.

The move: Pack a picnic and eat it in the shade of a giant cowboy boot in Oxbow Park, then wander Georgetown's antique shops.
