I'd like to think I know Sonoma County pretty well, but once in awhile I'll travel down a road I haven't been on for quite awhile and find something new. As I was traveling past the Kenwood Restaurant and Bar, something shiny caught my eye. I glanced over to the right to see a huge sculpture in the middle of a field.

I pulled over to take this photo, not realizing it was a wind vane. After I found my camera and stepped out of the car, the wind vane was slowly moving in the right direction for me to get a getter shot.

Just incredible!

That is pretty spectacular, Cynthia.  It must be new, because you wouldn't have missed this the last time you were there.

Is that a wind vane for a small airport, or something for horses to jump through?

It reminds me of the wings that kept Tom Hanks going in the movie Castaway.  Very cool!

Jane - this is a road I rarely travel, it just happened to be the easist way to get to a listing the other day.

Paul - not an average wind vane, no.

Glenn - We are big on sculptures here, and I'm just thinking this one was made into a wind vane to be different. This is sitting in a field next to a restaurant.

Barbara - that makes two of us!

Cindy - I couldn't think of what it reminded me of, you figured it out!

BLiz - serious is right ... I need to find out more about it.

That's fantastic!  How come you drive down the road and see so many neat things and all I ever see is trash and roadkill?  Think I need to find some better roads!
