Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park and Museum is not normally free but a few times per year the park offers free admission, usually in conjunction with a special event. April 24 is International Sculpture Day and to celebrate, the park waived its normal $8 per person fee for the day.

The 300-acre park combines woodland, meadows, gardens and lakes with over 70 modern and contemporary pieces of sculpture. Visitors can enjoy the park on foot, in a vehicle or by renting an "art cart" to traverse the hilly landscape. The park is divided into four areas: East Ridge, North Woods, Central Valley and Overlook Hill. We opted to drive to each section and stop at various lay-bys to get out and walk from piece to piece.

It was a splendid spring day and had I been smart enough to wear my
Brooks GTS-15s instead of sandals (to show off my gorgeous new pedi from
Spruce), we probably would have walked the entire park.
