Awesome photos, Edward!

yes Randall-- been playing pretty seriously for 30 years strong now! It's almost like talking for me at this point. (but that old converted player piano needs a serious tuning, as the pegs are starting to slip!)

Ok Randall, I took a whirlwind expedition around town this afternoon, and... well, I finally have some contributions!

Helen Gale McKennan-- important Sioux Falls historical figure:

Our little lady liberty, still too tall for me to crown:

I definitely got a few strange looks today.

This guy (Potato Man):

And finally our full size cast of Michelangelo's David. Um, this is the best I could do with my giant derby. I just couldn't rise to the occasion. ;)

Excellent shots, guys!

I think my favorite in this last group is Helen Gale. That bowler really suits her mien. Potato Man has a certain charm, too. :) Nice job on David, Jeff. I didn't know it's a full-sized replica; definitely tough to reach his noggin, and hanging the hat as a fig leaf wouldn't work for obvious reasons. ;)

Scotty, that beast is truly fearsome! Who is the sculptor? I'd like to look that up . . .

Region4, I love the lighting on the queen. Fantastic.

I dig the tin man, srserl!
Nice fit with the Stetson, Phineas. That's an unbelievable treehouse! :)

Here's a replacement shot for the first photo of this thread, which went awol somehow. This time she gazes at my Mallory.
