Crazy Yard Art

There's a fun variety of large folk art in this front yard.

[Tracy Boyd, 06/21/2025]

The artwork was made by the homeowner, Dave Tallant, who formerly built hot rods. He's created a "Yard Man" out of a lawnmower, a giant hand holding a ball of 350 watches, a life-size T. rex, and others, all out of scrap metal.
