On the way to Junction stopped in Kerrville for a few hours. Visited their Arts & Cultural Center then drove slightly out of town to Ingram to visit Stonehenge II, which was built in Hunt County by a couple of men who just liked the original. It is made of steel, metal lathe, and plaster. It is 90% as wide and 60% as tall as the original. Later they added a couple of replicas of the statues on Easter Island.
In 2010, after the death of one of the creators, his family offered the sculptures to the Hill Country Arts Foundation. A fund drive began to move it and it arrived in it's current location in 2012.
