As you come to visit, there is a decoration we made attached to the mailbox at the bottom of our driveway. Right now, it’s Yosemite Sam. We have made 34 decorations in our shop, choosing favorite cartoon characters and holiday decorations.
Our robot welcomes you, doffing his hat and grinning. You can see one of the owls behind him. (We have one on either side of the driveway.)
Here’s a close-up of them.
About halfway up the driveway, our flying pig hung from a strong line over the driveway. The huge branch AND the pig came down in a storm. The pig is now in our shop, waiting for me to refurbish him. We’ll bolt him to one of the big boulders beside the driveway, so it looks like he’s about to take flight.
Meet our guard dog. He’s ready to defend us from harm.
This crow is on the other side, at about the same level as the guard dog, watching everyone who drives up.
Toward the top of the driveway is our sun face. He weighs a LOT and was really hard to attach to the tree.
Below the sun face on the same side is our turkey, made from an old propane bottle and scrap metal.
This turtle sits beside the turkey. We didn’t make this, but I painted his shell.
And there you have it. You have almost reached the house. You might have missed the signs on trees, “Is there life after death? Trespass here and find out,” “Trespassers Will Be Shot. Survivors Will Be Shot Again,” and “Trespassers will be composted.”
Welcome to the Lewises! We’ll continue introducing you to other ‘critters’ another time.
