How cute. There are a couple of rocks painted to look like things along highways here- we always look for them. And somebody painted "Big Foot" tracks accross the highway, but some authority (presumably) painted them over.

Hi Charles,

Someone is quite artistic!  I'm sure it's a traffic stopper too!  Thanks for sharing it with us!  Have a great day!

OK.......Here's the deal with the frog.  Yes, a very large glacial boulder, quite common around here.  This was Frog Rock State Park, a popular picnic site alongside the road when we were kids (1940s - 1960s).  It is now NOT looking like this, but, rather, weedy and grown-in, picnic benches long gone (State cut-backs, of course), and the entry roads blocked off.  Supposedly, the State of CT is making arrangements to have the Town of Eastford take it over, but I haven't heard anything recently.

Mike, thanks----hop that makes her hopeing happy:)

Gregory, it is quite the landmark

Liz---and quite a while ago too

Alan, Ribit, Ribit to you too

Connie it used to be more than it is now----kind of abandoned unless you know where it is

Prest Realty---that is the way it goes isn't it?

Chris see my comment to Connie above

Craig---same to you I am sure:)

Myrl, I would bet not---this one is about 10 feet tall

Paul, how is that, stoned?:)

Heather is is actually your nutsy uncle taking a leak:)

Amy, glad to help push you out of your rut

Hey that is my big sister commenting on my blog---how cool is that!!!  But Dottie, I must protest I took this picture this last spring when I was there---if you walk in past the barracades this is what it looks like----I swear.

Debi----I suspect they will----too cool to let slide

Mr Charles,

That frog is better looking than you I am afraid. The assistants are often better looking than the bosses.

I have been busy.  And I have seen this photo before.  You suggested he was a member of my family.  That cannot be!  He is too stern looking to be related to me!

 

Very kindly,

Nutsy, in your case that is for sure true---especially when you break out the bikini

Croakster---all I can say is "ribit"

Cheryl, now you can't fool me----I would believe that you might have kissed some frogs but you are not likely to be one.

That is one rock they probably encourage the moss to grow on.
