Random roadside attraction
Saw this piece of homesteading
sculpture on our way home today.
It's how I'd want to live out my old age if I was a retired satellite dish.

SATELLITE DISH
An experiment in architecture, that's what I call it! Our area in NE Ohio is blessed with an over abundance of old satellite dishes. I have two structures on my property built with used satellite dishes, one structure is built with a solid aluminum dish and the other is built with a aluminum mesh dish which is great for growing ivy on. I have one more solid dish, perhaps someday I will construct a sand bag structure using used dog food bags and the dish as the roof. MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL.

Satellite dish trellis
Ooh, you make me want an aluminum mesh satellite dish too. I wonder if it would be strong enough to hold grape vines over our head?
