Grasshopper, palm tree and "It's Five O'clock Somewhere" sign are all in one spot. Always fun for us to find cute things like this.

The Grasshopper is looking healthy and happy, with flag flying. Palm tree and chair look great as well. Posts are there for the sign, but it wasn't installed when I stopped by. Directions were perfect, and took me through beautiful farm land. Nice detour from the interstate!

Grasshopper in winter.

The "It's 5 o'clock Somewhere" sign was not there. Stolen? Hibernating for the winter?

Unlike the metal grasshopper and palm tree, the fabric sign probably needs indoor when cold weather blasts the Plains.

There is no parking, and it's on a fairly trafficked 2-lane Highway. More of a drive-by.

It's 5 o'clock somewhere.

They've added a Jimmy Buffett "5 o'clock somewhere" metal palm tree and lawn chair to the cornfield. Fabulous.
