Lawn Ornament

I've seen colorful whirligigs spinning away against the wind, pink flamingos splattered across front lawns and snow machines in various states of disrepair, but my favorites are the vehicles. Yes, I'm talking about lawn ornaments. Once you hit the city outskirts, they're everywhere. Rural Maine is famous for them. These days, they are as frequent as yard sale signs, it seems. Some people really must think this stuff is attractive to their homes. This is a head-scratcher to me.
It's strange stuff!

  3. Know what you mean. To take it one absurd step further, check out some of the photos on Elko Daily Photo. He's captured vehicles people drove out into the desert and just left to rot. I guess they're not good enough to be parked on the lawn.

  4. Oooh, take some photos of all the other fantastic yard ornaments and get back to us. As far as the vehicles go, here in the south, a car on blocks is a dime a dozen.
