Retired chiropractor Bill Burson chiseled and glued a plaster plaque of the 10 Commandments into a large rock behind a bus stop in hopes of deterring men from using the bench as a toilet.
Inspired by a renewal of his Christian faith, Burson then chiseled and painted what he calls the Passion of Christ onto another rock near the bus stop. It shows three crosses on Mount Calvary where Christ was crucified, and the empty tomb where he was buried.
The rocks are in a grassy area behind a bus stop outside his former chiropractor office at 716 W. Brookside St., just east of the intersection with South 8th Street.
Here is a map taken from the El Paso County Assessor’s web site and a larger view from www.FlashEarth.com of the bus stop.
