Four giant eggs. Four towns with big pride. One very specific kind of road trip that only makes sense once you’ve done it. We’re leaning into Easter season the way we know best: skipping the usual bunny-and-church talk and hunting down oversized egg landmarks across the USA, then using each stop to uncover the local history that made it possible in the first place. 

We start in Wilson, Kansas with the World’s Largest Czech Egg, a towering, hand-painted tribute to Czech heritage that turns the whole town into a mini egg walk. From there we head to Winlock, Washington, where the town’s egg farming past still shows up loud and proud in the Winlock Egg and the annual Egg Days Festival. If you’re planning Pacific Northwest travel, this one lands nicely between Seattle and Portland and makes a fun geocaching-adjacent detour. 

Next up is Mentone, Indiana, home of a 10-foot concrete egg built to promote a classic small-town egg festival and keep the community on the map. We wrap in Lorain, Ohio with the giant Easter basket in Lakeview Park on Lake Erie, a Depression-era joy project that’s still a perfect photo spot today and somehow has a geocaching-sized gap nearby that needs fixing. 

We also share a clear update about our upcoming podcast break and how we’ll keep patrons in the loop with golden nuggets while we regroup.
