Mushrooms and Neglect.

These babies were chain sawed into the stump and give pleasure to those whom take time to gaze into the forest.  They are along US HWY 6 in Keystone, Summit County, CO  near the entrance to the Keystone River Golf Course. And, how cool is this ... about every few years, an unknown person, gives them a new color.  Last year they were pink, just bee-you-tee-full!

Question:  Why does someone care for these objects and so many local historic resources are being neglected?
