City of Rocks State Park in New Mexico has plaques set up in the park showing the distance between the Earth and other solar objects. Extends to, iirc, to the nearest star.
Another great one in Gainesville, FL that spans a mile from the Sun to Pluto. http://www.floridastars.org/solarwalk/solarwalk.html On this scale, the Sun is only 14inches and the Earth is less than 1/4" across
