Very cool, Mike!! You did a great job.

Just like everything else on this thread...pretty as they are, though, I just don't think I'd want a potty in my yard. No telling who might want to try it out just to see if it works.

Love all the rusty stuff, though, and all the painted pretties.

Judging by the sheer weight of this thing I know it has rebar inside holding it together and it's definitely made of concrete. There's nothing on it anywhere that says who made it, where it came from, etc.
All I know is that I'm never moving it again as long as I live !
I have it sitting on top of 4 concrete blocks, standing on end, buried in the ground.

Hi Mike. Great WW. Worth a broken sprinker head, I think. I remember sprinklers! Hilarious! Not popular here in this neck of the woods, but we broke our fair share there. Shrug! Wish I had had sprinklers this summer as dry as it has been ... but we had storms and good rain last night.

Got more yard art?

Thanks, Sharon and Brenda. I carted that concrete beaver across country from the West Coast. One of my faves too. He was a yard sale find out there ... I think maybe $3-$4. He is big and heavy but it was the movers who had to carry him so ... Whistling Big Grin Big Grin

Thanks, Vic. Sandi, this reminds me of your comment about my list of plants in that article. When I got to noticing how much animal yard art I had, I was so surprised! So far, frogs and wabbits and one old beaver. More to come. Animals unlimited ... Hilarious!
