I thought I might take a different (read quicker) route to a school in Loveland today. I was getting frustrated by the fact that there was a new school zone every 100 yards, making my route twice as slow as it would have been. Then I passed a giant bull. What?

Out of the corner of my eye, I caught the name: Benson Sculpture Garden.

It was after 5:00 when I was done and I traced my route back to explore the garden. This garden park has surprises around every bend and turn. (look for the ravens!) With 123 sculptures, you’re bound to see more later this year, right here. If you happen to find yourself in or near Loveland, Colorado – skip the oulet mall and head to the Benson Sculpture Garden.

I pulled up to a stoplight in Loveland and although it was only 33 degrees, the snow was already melting off the streets. I took a few quick pictures of the snow sliding off the back of this sign, then before my window was up, the snow had fallen.
