Unusual Sightings

Steamboat Springs is the closest town to the state park where we are staying so we have traveled there to resupply, do laundry, play disc golf and visit the hot springs. As we have traveled on the country road between the two, this ski lift chair hangs suspended beside the road with no explanation. Aspen is over 150 miles away. There have been other pictures I’ve made, on this trip, that are unusual so I thought I’d post those as well. One of the fun things about traveling is discovering things you didn’t know existed in other places.

Outside of Benton, Illinois, beside I 57, artist John Cerney, created this temporary mural of George Harrison as a “not for profit” art piece commemorating George Harrison’s visit to the town, in the summer of 1963, to see his sister who lived there at the time. His visit was the first by a “Beatle”, before the group landed in NY, a year later on their way to unprecedented stardom. Once a year, Cerney creates a project to donate to a town free of charge.
