Johnny Donutseed greets the dawn with coffee cup and doughnut in hand just south of I-10 on State Road 59.

He is only about 8-10 feet tall -- don't get overly excited or make any serious detours for Johnny Donutseed.

[Nicky Kimball, 08/16/2011]

We'd put him closer to 10 or 11 ft. tall, but it's the details that save him: goofy face and pony tail, supersized doughnut and cauldron of coffee. Not everyone's cup, maybe.

Stopped and enjoyed a cup of coffee with Johnny. Be wary of fire ants when posing for or taking pictures. His expression creeped me out a little, and he was not much of a conservationist.

I live close by. Johnny Donutseed still hoists a big doughnut and sips from his giant coffee cup.

Spotted this guy in Lloyd, Florida, just east of Tallahassee. He's wearing a BP hat and holds a cup of coffee and a giant doughnut. Ironically, the sign next to him says "SHRIMP."
