Swetville Zoo

Forget politics and social turmoil for awhile and view fifty or so photos of Bill Swet's whimsical creations.




















His creation honoring Air Force and Naval aviators.
And more. The River is the Cache La Poudre.








How many parts can you identify?



And more.









The Diavel made him do it.



A few more.






My oldest son. Sure glad I didn't listen to the "expert" when he was two. They advised putting him in an institution and "forgetting him".


 And finally, one for Coffypot. Nothing lectin free on their menu.

Some of these pieces must be offensive and racist. Surprised the place hasn't been picketed and demands made to remove the art work.

The place always makes me smile. Great place to take out of area visitors.

Those Diavels can make you do a lot, but this is the product of an evil genus in action.

Strange vision has Mr. Swet.

A neat place with a gourmet meal afterward. Lectin Free be damned. Full hashbrowns ahead.

As in a smothered hash brown bowl.

I love that zoo. Who knew? Best thing is the overhead is pretty cheap. Cool creations. Your son is wonderful. Glad you are getting to spend some time with him.

The place has grown over the years. My son had the great good fortune to have a couple of wonderful teachers. One said he wanted to get off the behavior modification track and try teaching the three "Rs". The more Sean was treated like a regular kid, the more he became a regular kid.

Holy smokes!

I know exactly where that is. I've been to that Costco several times. We stay at the Quality Inn on Mason, just North of Harmony, and get off the 25 on Mason when we drive up from DIA.

Oh well, less than two weeks until we're out of here, and that place is definitely on the "To See" list!

Unique place. I'm sure you will enjoy it.
