Peacocks, Art, and Stonehenge?

On our way home from vacation we made a couple of stops that turned out to be really random. The first stop was at what we originally thought was some military hill museum...? Turns out it was actually Maryhill Museum. An art museum. In the middle of nowhere. Huh? It cost something like $7 per person to go in and look around so we decided it wasn't really worth it at the time.
However, outside there were a few neat things to see...

There was a giant metal flower:




I didn't look at the title of this one but I think it's supposed to be flames or something...




The most fun part were the wild peacocks. For some reason I had it in my head that they were tropical birds....Anyway, there were signs saying not to feed them because they bite and scratch.




Our last stop before going home was Stonehenge.

Only Nick got out of the car to look, and I forgot to snap a picture (mommy brains.) Let's just say it's not as exciting as it sounds. It wasn't true to size and it's the "completed" version so it just felt a little cheap I guess...

Anyway, that's the end of our vacation!  Here are a few more pretty pictures!  Enjoy!
