It was only viewed from a distance since it appears to be on private land. He appears to be beige (nude?) with brown hair and is laying on his back on what looks like a green trailer. He is parked next to a farm house which can be seen from U.S. Hwy 52 which runs between Minneapolis and Rochester. Look to the west side of Hwy 52 between 210th Street E and 200th Street E. He is about 1/2 mile north of 210th St. E. He is hard to spot because he is laying down and there are a few hundred yards of cropland between him and the highway. He is about 7 1/2 miles south of the intersection of U.S. 52 and state Hwy 55. As far as I can tell - this puts him in Empire, MN. The trailer and apparent partial nudity are puzzling. I could be wrong, but I sense a traveling bible exhibit here.
