While this was previously described as a destination to see a metalwork cactus, snake, and dinosaur, we found that the snake and cactus had retired and were replaced with a whole herd of dinosaurs. The brontosaurus, likely the oldest construction, is a destination in itself -- now completely covered in stickers.
This is a wonderful place to stop for selfies with these larger-than-life monsters.

I didn't see the cactus, just the dinosaur and snake. Both have been painted an undesirable shade of brown...looks like to cover graffiti?
