When Bob retired from his work as an Air Force engineer, he began creating sculptures from junk metal. The yard is filled with wonderful, flowers, reptiles and dinosaurs. The largest are over 30 feet long. Visitors are welcome to drive in past the Dorris home to photograph and enjoy the sculptures. You can stop at the house to speak to them if you choose. I'm sorry to report that in March of 2006, Mrs. Dorris said that she didn't believe her husband would be able to create any more sculptures. The back of the yard is loaded with interesting old pieces of metal and rock that could have become many more wonderful creatures. I hope that arrangements are made so that the creations will continue to be on display forever.
