I Guess It Sounded Like A Great Idea,

at the time,


and here it is, in its heyday,

the idea? make a theme park of presidential heads, unfortunally the paying public did not think so,

a man called Howard Hankins helped to construct the park, for the full story, and it is an interesting one, have a look here,

each of the statues stands over 20 feet tall,

some weighing as much as 9 UK tons, (20,000 pounds),

it is hoped to make another park exhibiting them,

 but for the moment back in 2010 when the park went bankrupt,

they sit unwanted in a field, decaying, grouped in lines overlooking the countryside off I-64, and somewhere in the tree of the Black Hills in South Dakota, and across a handful of RV parks too, I guess it did seem like a good idea at the time, photographs found here.
