Hunting for a 'Space Capsule' in Rural Hickman County: Curious Nashville

TL;DR
A roadside attraction in rural Coble, Tennessee, resembling a space capsule with a NASA logo, has a backstory of family bonds and community. The Howard family created the capsule from a tipped cement truck that fell into marshy land. They printed American flag and markings for a nonexistent Apollo 17 mission, which rain and elements stripped off. The family has made it a part of their shenanigans, including parody street signs, to build neighborly bonds in the rural area. The capsule has fooled some people into believing it's a real spacecraft, and the family takes pride in being the author of an oddity that people can drive to and see in Hickman County.
