Mechanical designer Jim Peters, 54, was disappointed that a certain Scottish celebrity was missing from last year's Saline Celtic Festival in Michigan.
"I was down there at the festival. It was full of bagpipe music and Scottish sights and activities. Viewing the long body of water, one can't help think of the Loch Ness area in Scotland and its famous legend. I asked myself: "Where's the monster?"'
So this year, Peters built a 24-foot-long wood-and-steel mechanical Loch Ness Monster. "Millie" was named for Mill Pond Park, the location of the festival. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any photos of Millie online.
