Like many people who travel on Route 33 frequently, the Spy was very disappointed that homeowner Tom Blair, with a sizeable amount of frontage on the St. Michaels Road, had discontinued the practice of using his long fence as a theoretical backdrop to what can only be referred to as highway theater.
For several years, Mr. Blair had constructed humorous and elaborate sets with life-sized Air Force jets, mannequins, and other exotic props to entertain motorists making their way to and from St. Michaels. But for reasons not completely understood, these masterpieces of road art disappeared last year, and many in the community were greatly saddened that this great tradition had come to an end.
But, low and behold, the Blair show is back on. The Spy spotted his newest production yesterday on Route 33 and sent back this reconnaissance video of a well-known politician and his wife preparing for a Fourth of July address while his motorcade must cope with a flat tire.
This video is approximately one minute in length

Thank you, as always, Mr. Blair!
Patti Willis says
Silly rabbit!– everyone knows that the tires on THOSE cars can’t go flat!!

At last, information about the hilarious “stories” depicted along Hwy 33! Bless Mr Blair for his unusual philanthropy to the community.

A little while back I created a FB page called Oak Creek Story. The page is a collection of photos of Mr. Blairs exhibits of the past shared by fans of Mr. Blairs ingenious humor. On that page is an explanation of why the exhibits ‘were on hold’ for a while. Mr. Blair was unaware of the page until someone let him know of the public disappointment when the ‘show’ seems to come to an end. The page has received an amazing number of views and likes from local and folks from all over the country. If you would like to revisit some of his past triumphs please check out Oak Creek Story on FB. Oh, the page also includes a photo of the creator himself sitting in a giant rocking chair. Viewers are encouraged to share their photos on the page as well. Pam O’Brien
