This location evolved as a popular site for people to meet in the mid 1940's upon completion of this Rt 60 bridge.
Conversations have included families, weather, taxes, aches and pains, joys and sorrows, the latest happening in town and around the world. Tall tales and stories spun by visitors gave it the name it carries today.
This liar's Bench is dedicated, August 1999, in memory of the friends who have gathered here to share their lives, beliefs and experiences. It is our hope that their benches will bring together friends and spur new tall tales for many years to come.
