A grand place to visit! In two days, I made a trip to the Forevertron and Jurustic Park. What a…read moreweekend! Jurustic Park is just north of Marshfield, even though it's actually in Marathon County. The collection is located on private property so if you visit, be respectful of the neighborhood and observe the hours. You won't believe you're on the right road because there are no signs, except a small one that makes sure you follow the correct fork in the road. All of a sudden, there you are! Jurustic Park is a collection of artwork by Clyde Wynia, a retired lawyer who took up welding to create his art. His wife, Nancy, is also an artisan, working with semi-precious stones and glass. The two have combined talent to build some unique artwork. Photos don't do those creations justice, you have to visit to see it. Clyde's medium of choice is metal, mostly ferrous under ferrous oxide (rust) but there is also iron and a variety of other metals. He claims these aren't dinosaurs, but creatures that lived in the marsh but are frozen in position by rust. A few move, one monster is named Art, which is short for Articulated and. . . Beware the Jabberwock! You enter the park, greeted by an ashtray held by an appropriate figure as a reminder of what smoking will ultimately do for you. Check out the snakes and cats, then walk under the giant spider. Some of the sculptures move if gently prodded, but don't push too hard. They fight back. Enjoy the wit and whimsy, and if you can, meet Clyde (he's obvious) and enjoy his running commentary of your tour. It's well worth the side trip from Marshfield.

Good location, mostly outdoors so go on a pleasant weather day if you can. Entertaining for young and old. You can take home a sculpture if you please as many are for sale.
