Starship Pegasus

The Starship Pegasus
Off of I-35 south of Dallas on Kinfolk Lane just outside Italy, Texas you will see this starship put down by the entrance to the freeway. Once a restaurant and game room with designs on be a hotel entertainment complex it sits quietly while the new owners try to restore it and get it open as a restaurant again. This is just down the road from Monolithic Domes and was built as a restaurant in 2005 by the dome builder for the previous owner.
We spent an enjoyable hour with the current owner as he explained his hopes for getting it reopened. It's a terrific one of a kind building and we wish him all the luck in the world as this is the kind of building ontheroad lives for!
Aliens from the Pegasus
Originally the Pegasus included these statues in front of it but as the building was abandoned and left to languish beside the road the statues were vandalized. Currently they are stored on the grounds at Monolithic Domes awaiting their return to Pegasus and their homeland.

Big Stick and I rub the Alien's Belly. Fun in many dimensions!
