Big Pig, Gorilla, Ice Cream

The Big Pig is visible from the road on Highway 46 when you turn into the place. You can see the Big Gorilla, now in in a cage, as you drive in. They no longer have the Giant Bear (we asked the kid at the ice cream place). But they have added a Mini Giant Ice Cream Cone because of the shop there.

We'll remember to add "mini giant" to the Roadside lexicon.

Big Pink Pig

It really is a Big Pig, probably about 4.5 feet high, out in front of the Rocky Top Exchange. There are also a gorilla and a bear, but they are not bigger than life size. I'm not sure why they were there, since the business was closed on Monday when we stopped by. Rocky Top sells a variety of wooden outdoor structures such as play houses, storage sheds, and chicken coops.
