Virginia is for Druids

This is Foamhenge, a replica of Stonehenge constructed entirely from styrofoam that is located on Route 11 in Natural Bridge, Virginia. I’ve never been to the original, so I can’t make any sort of comparison, but for me it was a surprisingly eerie place.

Unlike its prototype, there is no mystery as to how Foamhenge was constructed. According to the informational plaque at the bottom of the hill (the heelfoam?):

Foamhenge completed in six weeks using beaded styrofoam blocks weighing up to 420 lbs. Delivered on 4 tractor trailer trips from Winchester, VA 100 miles north. It took 4–5 Mexicans and one crazy man to construct.
