Anyone have "yard art"?

I guess this qualifies as Yard Art. Even though it's not exactly in our Yard. We have a Campground with a Shelter and privvy that we built. We gather there to 4 wheel in our Timber. Have 80 acres of steep timber trails, etc.

As for the picture. There is a medium sized creek that runs across the corner of our Farm. When it's dry enough we can 4 wheel up and down it for a couple miles. Several years ago I saw this rock about almost a mile downstream from our farm. I got brave enough a couple weeks ago to drive my tractor down the creek to retrieve it. Also got the slab it's sitting on at the same location. I think it's some type of sandstone. Never saw anything quite like it. Makes a great conversation piece at the Camp.

Great looking rock. I had a street sign made for our Ten Mile Creek camp, showing it as the corner of Holly and Vine.

We've got a dirt path entrance to our area, off a gravel road. I had a "Jeep Road" sign made and it's mounted on a pole at the entrance. Sometimes locals will ask me about it and whether it's a new public road?? One time Jehovah's Witness workers came by and said they'd drove down that Jeep Road but didn't see any houses??

Our camp is a quarter mile down a three trail road, behind a locked gate at the dead end of the county grade. But several times people have drove down there while we were there. The camp is near the mouth of the creek at the Chipola River, and until a few years ago, the St. Joe Timber Company land across the creek was not leased. During the summer there would be up to fifty people swimming at the mouth. Now only tubers and boaters stop there, but there is still a few folks there on weekend days during the summer. Knock on wood, we have never had anything stolen. They do leave us some trash from time to time though.
