Villette,
That is a fat frog; probably sits around and eats flies and crickets all day, lol. If you look close he even has a ring on his froggy finger. Hilarious. I'm going to have both my kids and pups pose with him next Sunday. Hopefully I'll get some cute shots. I'll post them.
Kelz,
I know, I never noticed it there before either. I'm not sure when they put that statue up. My mother mentioned that she'd read about someone giving it to the mayor, but she couldn't remember when that was. I thought it was great, most of the other statues around town are serious, or traditional -- this adds a real whimsical quality to the area.
