These neat benches have been fashioned out of wood, with wagon wheels in place of legs. The benches are located in a nice little park in Paris, Idaho, with lots of fresh green grass, a covered picnic area, and a monument that provides the history of the small log cabin that is the focal point of the park. Below is some of the text from the plaque on the monument:
"Thomas Sleight Cabin was built in the fall of 1863 by Thomas Sleight and Charles Atkins, who, with their wives, Marianne and Ann, occupied it together during the first winter of the settlement of Paris, Idaho."
While I doubt the wagon wheel benches are from the Thomas Sleight or Charles Atkins family, they are a nice touch to the park and extend the "old time" theme of the park.
