Leanne drove my car to Rhinebeck, her car does not have air conditioning...
I would have melted.
She's a great driver, she stops for "stuff" and she is a great companion trespasser.
Yep, she is super cool.
I am pretty sure Leanne noticed this and asked if I wanted to stop?
ummm "do bears shit in the woods - YES"
We stopped, we took pictures and half way through our "farm tour" we stumbled upon live people.
I asked if it was ok if we looked around, and quickly mentioned that we loved the "art".
Of course they said yes and we are trespassing no more!!
Art made with recycled trash, it was so fun to stand in front of these "sculptures"
to find and name that junk.
First The Magic Dragon...
Mixed Media Sculpture made with recycled items.
I photographed this sign but never read it.
I remember Leanne saying something about private property...
she must have read the sign but she happily followed along anyway.
Can you believe that girl...hehehe!!
Next there was a Horse...
Lastly an Elephant...
that Leanne was happy to pose with!
We stumbled on this hole in the wall burger joint
Voted The Best Hidden Gem Burger Joint by Hudson Valley Magazine
and I could not agree more.
These burgers, with their special sauce, were amazing.
When we hit this bridge, we were close to our Rhinebeck home...
and Leanne slowed down, so I could get pictures!!
More tomorrow - lot's more tomorrow...
I took 210 pictures...but, no, I'm not sharing "all" of them!!

:)
Such creativity! Love this post. I feel your excitement. I would love that excursion too, Debbie.
Such creativity!
I love our local lamburgers!
It was nice to see such a beautiful creative art done with recycling materials. All looks awesome. Thanks for sharing them...
Hello, the sculptures are really cool. I love the elephant. The bridge scene is pretty. The burger looks delicious too. It looks like your trip is off to a great start. Wonderful photos. Happy Tuesday, enjoy your day!
You can just hear the excitement in your posts, I am so glad you were able to get away and have all this fun!!! Sounds like you had a fun trip there, some people are just so creative and talented artists aren't they, those recycled sculptures are too cool!
Happy I got to be "your Chuck" last weekend and stop to see all the fun things!
-grin- Never read signs. It helps, when one needs a completely innocent look, on one's face. ,-0.
Crazy, wild art!!!!!! Fun!!!!
The art was very interesting and love the bridge pictures...
Most people are afraid to drive someone else's car--bless Leanne's heart!!!
Interesting art pieces, but my favorite photos are those of the scenery, the lakes, hills and trees.
Isn't it amazing what people can do! I love these, Debbie! :)
xoxo
Wow! This is fantastic.
Great pictures, Debbie.
Greetings from Poland.
I love your guernsey wrap. Are you on Ravelry? Your girls weekend looked amazing. Knitters are special people.
Thanks for sharing.
Oh those sculptures are so cool!!!! I am so glad you stopped and took pictures I can't wait to show Brady!
I love that dragon. And the elephant is brilliant! I'm a bit of a nervous nelly about trespassing!
I enjoyed that stop very much. I love yard art made like that. Trying to get my brother into doing things like that. He saves scrap metal and I think between the two of us we could produce some cool stuff. A few years back I met a local metal artist through a guy I was dating. Check out his work here at https://pam-lifethroughmyeyes.blogspot.com/2014/05/major-hall-metal-artist.html I think you will like his work. Let me know what you think. I so wanted to do stuff like this but when I saw his work I decided that me being this creative was a joke!
Love that you found Leanne to be such a willing "partner in crime". Amazing sculptures! The wonderful imaginations in each one. I cannot choose a favourite, I can only marvel over each brilliant one.
What fun you had! Can I go next time? heehee! The magic dragon is amazing...I've never seen anything like it! They are all great! Enjoy your week! (I've been missing your posts, don't think you are showing up in my favs now...have to check on that!) Hugs!
Leanne certainly has an adventurous spirit... just like you - no wonder this trip has been such fun!
Wow, I love that recycled art to bits!! Such creativity, plus it's interesting working out what all the components once were. Love the elephant especially.
Isn't it beaut to have a decent hamburger! I reckon I could do justice to that meal too ;D)
OK,I'm really hungry and that burger and fries makes me even hungrier. I love the bridge shots.
what interesting structures! they are quite peculiar yet unique. :) i have to say the elephant was my favorite.
and mmmm...the burger looks so delish!
thank you for sharing these photos!
Boy, that is some crazy art! Glad you found a compatible fellow adventurer.
hi sally, yes i am, kinda', but i don't really use it. i am going to start trying, i am stangs6!!
I enjoy so much your unique adventures. I am amazed at how you find special items to photograph. These were particularly fascinating and creative pieces of art using recycled stuff. I did like the elephant and your friend is lovely, also.
The Bridge photos were awesome. I of course, liked the photo of the food. I would soooo love a good cheese burger and fries. My mouth is watering!
Blessings and hugs for this one!
Great pictures, Debbie. Those animals are very well made !! Good memory you take from there.
I'm glad you'll have such a good time.
Besos.
That was very serendipitous.
BTW when I saw your title, I thought you may b headed to Germany. Not really, but Germany did cross my mind.
An unbelievable amount of creativity here, Debbie.
That dragon leaves me absolutely speechless.
xo.
Wow! Could this trip have been any more perfect? The journey and the destination (and the company)...everything was wonderful. I love this crazy recycled art. So cool.
I'm mylersal. I don't really use it much either.
Fantastic artsy pieces you’ve shared there Debbie.
Amazing sculptures!!!! Thank you for sharing them with us :)
Simply amazing sculptures, some people are just so creative.
Loved seeing all of your photo's.
All the best Jan
Talk about creative! Very impressive sculptures! The burger looks awesome, too!
Wow those sculptures are awesome. The Elephant was my favorite. Atleast these people didn't call the Police on you. (See my post for today). - The bridge shot was neat and the burgers sounded yummy. Such fun you have.
I love this crazy recycled art. So cool.
