Texas Triumphs at Stone Henge

Back from celebrating our 6th Anniversary this weekend. We, of course, had to take our bikes to a popular British spot.. We did some riding, visited a winery, and of course picked up some wine.. had some good eats, and a nice, back road, ride home.

Had me going for awhile to. The original is on the Salisbury plain west of London near Wales. The nearby hill gave it away. This one is located in Kerr County, TX. It also has two Easter Island statue replicas, as well, flanking it on either side.

Nuth'in like a good clarifaction. The picture is nice anyway.

Just goes to show you that you don't have to travel halfway around the world to enjoy good points of interest. Our country has it all. Obama not included.

When I was stationed at Aldershot in the 70s we used to drive by StoneH about twice a week and stop for lunch. When I saw this picture I said shit its changed, now who said everything is bigger in Texas.

This Stone Henge is about 2/3rds the size of the original, plus it's all together. It is kind of neat though.. We also took some pics with the Easter Island statues that Dennis mentioned..
