Such a wonderful, way out place! We saw the first UFO driving east on I-90, then the horses, then the cows on the boat. We got off at the next exit. Three roundabouts later, we were on the access road. Mike met us in his golf cart, filled us in, and off we were to see! Everything is for sale. There are so many items it's hard to see everything, but fun for photos and selfies.

Interesting site, but not in great shape. Hard to find and you will need a short hike to get there. Unusual to find a place like this in Spokane, so it's worth the effort.
