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?

The snake is in good shape now.

Snake is either broken or going through a crisis.

At the edge of the road is a dinosaur, saguaro cactus, giant rattlesnake and a gila monster statue in the front of a gas station/Subway restaurant. Wanting a little shade on a 110 degree day, my grandson found some - under the dino!
