White Horse

I would love to learn the story of how and why this horse, seemingly from a child's toy, was put on top of this fence.

Quack!

Amusing, charming, personal.  I expect it to move at any moment.

Washington's Toes


George Washington
Washburn-Fair Oaks Park, 24th Street and Stevens Ave.  

I like the way George's toes extend out over the base of the statue.

This is a copy of a statue by Jean Antoine Houdon at the Virginia State Capitol. It was a gift to the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board at the bicentennial of Washington's birth, 1931.

Children's Hospital at night

I love this sculpture, I took some of it last week, I love it when the sun falls on it, and under artificial lighting it is pretty awesome as well. I think this new building is very nice to look at.
