Day 62 - Petersen Rock Gardens - Redmond, Oregon

Karin says she takes all of her guests to visit these rock gardens and we would be no different. To say the least, the gardens are wierd and very strange.
It seems that an old farmer from Denmark started building the gardens in 1935 and continued to build until his death in 1952.


There is just about every kind of rock you can imagine in the gardens and they all came from within an 85 mile radius of the gardens.
Some of them are kind of pretty, in a very strange sort of way. It was an enjoyable walk in any case.
