The Enchanted Highway was the brainchild of teacher and school principal Gary Greff from the small town that is 32 miles south of I-94. In an effort to attract people and businesses to Regent, North Dakota, Greff started by building The Tin Family (

There is one large grasshopper here that measures 40 feet tall and 50 feet long. Two medium ones are 12 feet by 15 feet and three smaller ones are about 2 feet by 4 feet. The grasshoppers were constructed from 4 oil field tanks.
