Amy Rose and Tim Laubis are into rescues...not the usual pet rescues but they have saved a caboose and a statue from the trash heap.
And, for their engagement, Tim gave Amy Rose a rock...literally, a 16-ton rock, but more about that later.
The caboose has been on their property since 2007; the statue of a Crusade knight on a horse has been there since 2009.
Both have had considerable notice by passersby the past few years since their property is located on busy State Route 81, just east of the school.
