My Collection of Creepy And/Or Pointless Lawn Decorations

The bench no one ever sits on...


The bench no one ever sits on- except for the ceramic forest creature....


Okay, so I know I just blogged this one recently, but I think it deserves a second mention. Don't you?...


The bench no one ever sits on made more annoying with school colors. I think the lanterns and cement circle are a nice touch too...

The bench no one ever sits on accompanied by the fence that doesn't keep anything in or out. Hint: some of you know who lives here. heehee...

I REALLY hate it when they look like this....


They must really love their trash can. I actually got busted by the old guy that lives here when I snapped this one. I just waved and smiled, like me taking pictures of his place was the most natural thing in the world....Bonus: there's a windmill in the background...

Ahhh...one of my personal favorites- the flower bed. Get it?! HOOHAAHAA!!...anyway, I could NOT get a good picture, and I drove by THREE times. I figured I'd really be pushing my luck trying again, there were a couple vehicles there. Anyway, I've lived here almost four years and I've NEVER seen a flower in that thing. It's really more of a Dead Leaf Bed....



A stone duck pulling a wagon with pretty much all of the paint chipped off of it. This is creepy because A) it's the ONLY ornament on the premises B) it's pressed right up against the fence, beak through the chain link, like it's pleading for someone to set it free C) the house is creepy. It's all beat up and run down, it looks like no one lives there, but they do. Kids actually live there, there's always bikes in the yard. There used to be like 10 jack russell mixes yapping around in there, then one day they were just gone....



The always unsettling life size toddler statue. You do a double take, because for a split second you think someone's 18 month old is sitting out front by his or herself...

I'd forgotten how hilarious your posts always are. Since school started I have time to glance at facebook and that's about it, I feel like I'm buried beneath the pile of crap in your previous post and trying to dig my way out with one of those flat wooden "spoons" they used to give you to eat those little icecream cups in elementary school. Yeah, anyway, thanks for the reminder, I needed a laugh today!

Lawn ornaments are wrong. They scare me a little... especially that alien.
