There is a house on a boulevard (a *real* boulevard, one of those streets with
the islands down the middle, not a California boulevard, which is just another
name for street) in Santa Cruz, CA (North) where the owners have filled in the
entire yard with colored gravel and built a mound of rock in the middle with
a PINK push-mower on top, with a sign "R.I.P." on the mound. Right in the
front yard! Tacky, but funny.
