food for the eye

watermelon sculpture.jpg

There are some strange ephemeral art forms out there – sand sculpture and ice sculpture we know about, but watermelon sculpture?

Why this should be posted on a site dedicated to a mature age motorcycle rally somewhere in the North East of the United States escapes me. “Hey Hiram, I’ll go get my knitting from the sidecar while you just whittle that there watermelon.. and we can get creative for Jesus.”

“People bring their young children to this rally. They bring their mothers, fathers and grandparents even. There is a large contingent of Christian Motorcycle Association members (and other religious groups) who return to Americade each year. The Blue Knights (Police) and Red Knights (Firemen) are represented in large numbers each year as well. But the common thread running through the fabric of Americade is the level of responsible, respectable, mature behavior by the attendees.”

“Are loud pipes welcome? NO”

As noticed by the Grauniad.
