I was visiting with Mandy (girl I'm currently talking to) and we were driving around seeing what there was to see in the small village of Palm Coast. It was damaged a while back by wildfires, and presumably was lashed a good bit by the 'canes last year (ie. beyond shopping areas and country clubs, basically nothing).
So, I'm driving with her down A1A, past beach houses, and everything, and come across this statue near Marineland just south of St. Johns County. It's completely overgrown and the marble is turning green from exposure, and there is only rubble and what used to be a parking lot there. So I stopped to take a picture, not knowing if I'll ever purposefully see it again.
Beautiful and poignant, is there anything he represents? Was this a statue of Poseidon, Lord of the Sea at an entrance to the now closed park? A shepherd with no flock... standing and facing the ground, thinking on past glories...
Dunno.

What a beautiful statue!
Yeah, thought it was great. Still wonder what it's for, what it was.
