This sculpture, hewn of stone from the same quarry which provided the limestone for Nebraska's Capitol Building [quarry located at Bedford, Indiana], is located at the York westbound rest area, just east of the York interchange. The arrangement of the stones, in accordance with the four points of a compass, hearkens to the days when travel was determined by celestial observation rather than the road-maps and superhighways of today.1
