The Wife and I went there last week. The weather was brutally hot and we did not linger. Alas, the experience is not as inspiring as it once was. Before, you'd come upon this Stonehenge replica flanked by two Moai literally in the middle of nowhere, backed by limestone hills. It was surreal. Just out there in the wilderness, with no context. I loved it. Now, it's in the middle of a city park. There is almost no way to take a good photo of any element of the installation without getting buildings or telephone poles in the background. I'm absolutely happy the pieces were saved and relocated when the original property sold, but a good part of the magic was left behind.

I may well do an episode on this, but it won't be until the fall, when the temperatures are more bearable and all the plant life isn't brown from drought!
