Motorcycle sculpture made from shovels
 
If you find yourself on Highway 1 north of Monterey and south of Santa Cruz you'll see fields of strawberries and artichokes along with some fruit stands.  
 
Something unexpected in this pastoral area is an Army Surplus store flying MIA, KIA, American and Confederate flags (in the Monterey Bay area?) and an artist (Eagle Iron) that creates large motorcycle sculptures out of iron, license plates, horseshoes, shovels... anything he can weld together.
