Now I just want to know who has this much time on their hands to put all this together and maintain it? It turns out that a retired gentleman named Dmytro Szylak, who came to Hamtramck from the Ukraine right after WWII, put all this up by himself. It took him from 1997 or so until 1999 to put it all together. I came by here to snap a couple more pix and realized, OOPS!! FORGOT THE DAMN CAMERA!! Mr. Szylak and his wife came out and gave me a mini-tour. I could have gotten some great pix from the backyard looking out. Several of the displays are wired-up and move when he flicks a certain switch. He also has lights and music wired-up, as well. Take a good look because, who knows, it's fate may one day be similar to that of Heidelberg.
