I was walking home the other day doing that kind of half-daydreaming, half-paying attention thing I do when I almost jumped out of my skin. I caught sight of this out of the corner of my eye and thought it was a real guy hiding in the bushes.I thought he was looking at me until I started to walk away.
Boy, was I wrong.
Well that makes my garden look rather uninteresting. Whatever happened to garden gnomes?

Isn’t it amazing the things people put in their yards? There’s street in Sabastipol, California where a metal sculptor lives. He’s talked just about everyone on the street to putting one of his sculptures in the yard. Now the street is like an outdoor museum and a real tourist destination. If you’re curious. you can see his work here: Patrick Amiot.

Hi Selma,
I’ve never seen anything like it, I must say I don’t particularly like the way they have done it, it really looks weird, I can certainly understand why you took a step back.

GYPSY DANCER – I know. It really is quite hilarious. Bring back the gnome!!!
LAURI – Is he? I am really interested in it too. A friend of mine lives in a street where all the hedges are cut in different shapes. It’s a bit like Edward Scissorhands. The next time I’m there I’ll get some photos for Mr. K.
PATTIKEN – It really is funny what people put in their yards. Wow. I am really interested in that sculptor. It reminds me of a house round the corner from me where the woman who owns it is a potter. She has all sorts of weird creations in her front yard. It’s very Dali-esque. I must remember to get a photo of it!
CATHY – A lot of people do have a good sense of humour around here. I am glad I saw it. I am sure there is something just as hilarious waiting round the corner!!
MAGS – It did give me a fright. I wasn’t expecting it. I laughed when I realised what it was, though!
GABRIELLE – I’m glad I know it’s there now because if I was to walk past it at night I might have a heart attack. Too funny π

I’ve never seen anything like this. Wonder if it will take off? The 1st pic looks like something our traffic cops would dream up to hide their camera in…
