At the the corner of 32nd Ave S and 42nd St S in Fargo, a little yellow house and it's ... er ... landscaping takes up an entire corner lot.
Sorry, I really don't know what to call the maze-y stuff.
Is it still a labyrinth if a leprechaun can see over it?
Wait.
What's shorter, a leprechaun or an elf?
With no signage to indicate the "why" of its presence, I could only assume its purpose was to serve as an invitation to explore.
Even if I didn't know which magical creature lived here.
Naturally, I accepted.
I even followed the pavers creating a path "in".
I was totally charmed by the window box flowers.
I've always wanted a window box.
Even fake flowers are sweet in such a box.
It's such an interesting little place.
Especially since it's situated on one of the most well-traveled intersections in the metro area.
And under these behemoths.
May you discover a little unexpected whimsy in your own landscape.
And when you do?
I hope you explore it.
With or without the mythical, magical creature of your choice.

Of course, I was waylaid by the maze.
Once inside, I admired the ... uh ... the being inside of it all.
And the crazy, but seemingly durable angles.
So, so many angles.

The person who owns this lot is a friend of a friend. He's a landscaper. He didn't know what to do with the vacant lot he owns so he thought he'd build a labyrinth of sorts and advertise some cool things he can do in your yard. I think he's just waiting for the right offer to sell the lot, but it does make for some interesting thoughts as you drive by.
ReplyDeleteNow that makes sense.
