Altared State

Foo at first thought this was just a block of stone in a box.
But soon he learned that it was an altar stone used by some of the native tribes. Cool, but why the fence? Are the locals scared of mojo?

Toad the Line

Foo was just wandering around this beautiful garden when all of a sudden this large toad popped up from underneath him! I t was a crazy wild ride, but Foo managed to keep his balance and his footing. Whew!

GoldiFoo Trials

After Foo had been wandering around the Sculpture Garden for quite some time, he began to grow wearisome and needed to find a seat. He tried several, and here is what he found.

This one was too high and narrow...
This one was too low and wide...

But this one, with its neat little curves and cool little markings was just right. He was just upset that it was too big to fit in the car.

Fortress de Foo

As Foo continued to go through the sculpture park, he found a variety of fortress-like sculptures that he wanted to try out so he could wage war on the crazy people! This one was nice and high, but it didn't afford him much cover from this angle.
In this one Foo could hide really well, but his vision was severely limited. In the end, he couldn't find one that was just perfect, so he decided he had to look elsewhere and just keep moving on down the road.

Foo in the Hole!

Foo just loved this sculpture because it was like a high-rise apartment condo built just for him. The only thing it was missing was an elevator!

Fooslan's Table

Foo has always been a fan of Aslan from the Narnia Chronicles, so when he saw this giant rock table, he just had to jump up and lay down. Luckily it didn't end for him the way it did for Aslan, stabbed in the back with a crack stone table. The artist would have been angry.

Rock Noms

When Foo saw this big red rock eating the smaller gray one, he decided that it must taste good. Curious, he jumped up into the red rock monster's mouth. Luckily Big Red was taking a breather and didn't chomp down on Foo while he tasted the gray noms. He wasn't pleased with the taste.

Not Full Circle

Foo says he didn't get in the way of the sculptor, but it looks mighty suspicious that the sculpture just ends and doesn't make a complete circle. He does apologize for the crack in the base though. Foo just got too excited and had to jump right there to get up to his photo perch.

Set in Stone


When Foo came upon this sign, he wondered what kind of sculptures he would find. Statues? Porcelain? Potatoes?

Foo looked all around and was amazed to see a multitude of monolithic marvels to behold. He just had to go closer to check them all out!

Circle the Flagstones

Foo just loves finding patterns in the pavement, especially when they are so geometrically pleasing. Plus, this stone circle was nice enough to color-coordinate with Foo in a round rainbow of wonders.

Excalibur!

Foo rests after unsuccessfully trying to pull the sword out of this stone near Rochester, NY. He must not be the one true king, but he is the One True Foo.
