It’s the Spinal Tap Stonehenge.

I like the new one better...It’s certainly more functional.
To: nickcarraway
Well.. it seems a pretty decent table though.
The rocks might make some nice landscaping elements nearby.

Reminds me of the props used on Spinal Tap’s “Stonehenge World Tour.” LOL!!!

Neolithic one was mistaken as an eroded Gehry picnic bench needing replacement.

In six thousand years they’ll probably bury someone under the picnic table. The Circle of Stuff.

It does look better. And it had been there long enough...

And in the meantime, if someone could have hypothetically asked the ancient people who put this up what they might think of this... they might have said “Cool. We wish we could be there for the dinosaur barbecue when you do.”
It says a “tomb” — is the actual burial in the ground, beneath? With the original stones, now replaced by that picnic table, being the markers? I can’t believe they managed to cart off an actual entombed body without noticing it.

That “new” picnic table has been there long enough for moss to grow on it.

At least they got the alignment right.
It doesn’t look to me like they disturbed anything really. The other stone is still there.
Political correctness is about as refreshing as a fart.

Big deal.
2,000 years from now the picnic table will be an archaeological find. Who are we to deprive our ancestors of important ruins?

I’m glad you posted this “painting.” Anytime there is a screwup of historical proportions, I think of this and smile.
To: nickcarraway
Think of it as a restoration.
