Porter Sculpture Park.

Porter Sculpture Park

Just off I-90 you can see a huge horse and bull's head. This is where you turn to drive out a long dirt road to this delight. The man who sculpted all the work is on the property to answer you questions. He is a really friendly man and easy to talk to. It cost $10 person to walk around the field to all of the art, and it's well worth it. There are some really funny pieces, such as a big spider scaring a girl, whose hair is standing on end. The Bull's Head and horns are the largest -- really huge.
