Plain Jane before dollin' 'er up!
That's A Mower, Eh?, prior to her first Kinetic Sculpture Race, styrofoam not yet sealed with brick colored house paint. Formerly a local church's Honda 3813 riding lawn mower. Named 'That's A Mower, Eh?' for the 1950's song 'That's Amore', that we altered/murdered for the pageantry requirement song at the da VInci Days festival at Corvallis Oregon. lyrics must include name of sculpture, hometown, da vinci, Corvallis and a lucky race official's name. Subsequent songs have been: 'Chattanooga Choo Choo; for the Kinetic Choo Choo, ' Don't Fence Me In' (Don't Bounce Me In) for Bounce For Glory, 'Teddy Bear's Picnic' AND 'We Will Rock (Bounce) You' for 2007, & 'Cool Clear Water' for 2008 .

Amphibious human powered, "That's A Mower, Eh?", created for the Kinetic Sculpture Race circuit by Peter Wagner. Free styrofoam provides the floatation in 4 strategic spots...and leaves little souvenirs
upon contact with other machinas...
