Her neighbors all have a ton of tacky TJ ceramics. There's the giant rabbit dressed in a vest. The giant piggy bank, complete with round handle on top. The surfing monkey. On and on it goes. And they're all broken and crumbling. It looks like a cemetary for pottery. But what really completes the illusion for me is the "lawns" of white rock. Where is this found in nature? How is this something anyone would ever want to look out their front window at? My aunt lives in a Del Webb community in Roseville, Ca. There's a street named Goose Meadows and EVERYONE has those plastic geese out front. But wait, there's more. They all dress the geeses for the seasons. Santa hats for Christmas, Green bonnets and skirts for St Patrick's Day, Pilgrim garb at Thanksgiving, flowered frocks in the spring...you get it. Why?
