#147 See the world's biggest__________


Gnomes. Small, colorful, cute/ borderline creepy. I enjoy the occasional gnome as much as the next person, but when I heard rumblings that the worlds largest gnome was on my turf my mission was clear. Find that big bastard and photograph it!!!!

Ok, so it really wasn't as much of an epic adventure as I made it out to be, but it was chilly that day and I'm very delicate!!!!


Meet Elwood. This beautiful concrete giant stands a whopping 15 feet tall and weighs in at more than 3,500 pounds.  He was living at Reiman Gardens when I first met him.  There is no possible way you can be around him an not be smiling. I was freezing my ass off AND I had to pee, but I still enjoyed our encounter. Until we meet again, my dear, sweet Elwood.

LOL I love this. Almost as much as I love gnomes themself.

Gnomes are pretty amazing. I'm glad the worlds biggest thing I saw was Elwood and not something like the worlds largest ball of twine. Although I think I saw the worlds largest pitchfork as well.
