I got to see this last April when my fiancé and I were talking a walk in Holdingford checking out the covered bridge on the Lake Wobegon Trail. We parked in a nearby lot, and right by my car was this large piece of petrified wood and I gravitated to it like a moth to a flame.
Every aisle was another adventure. It was almost like a store of souvenirs that were once for sale at another souvenir shop that went out of business.
The statue was originally created as a symbol to represent how all we all interconnected, and that is true now more than ever.
Even with this statue being in the "middle of nowhere", it still sees visitors from around the world.
