While sitting at Rico’s along Main Street in Pullman, people were suddenly getting up from their tables, pausing on the sidewalks, staring with wonder at this behemoth. I’m still not really sure what it is. Someone told me at one point but it wasn’t that interesting, something to do with electricity or something. It was going from Texas to Moses Lake on a carrier with Oregon plates. It took a team of a half-dozen people to orchestrate its movement around an ordinary street corner from Main to Grand. When it finally rounded the corner everyone applauded and cheered.
Good thing this wasn’t coming through this past weekend during graduation or the great exodus from Pullman.
Here are more photos of the massive thing and its extensive towing system.

Honestly? It kind of looks like a wind tower, like the kind the company my boyfriend works for makes. I could be wrong, though – I’ll have to double check. Pretty crazy that happened, though.
