Solo-friendly wandering
The Carpetbagger — a connoisseur of roadside America traveling alone — covers two museums built for lingering: Beyond the Lens, whose building began life as National Enquirer Live before rebranding within weeks, Bigfoot trivia gauntlet and all; and the remodeled Ripley's, whose shooting gallery gives retired exhibits a second life as targets — reviewed by a man who has visited every Ripley's in the US and Canada.
