Gone Fishin

A few months ago I posted a picture of the EPCOR Tower which is the newest building in downtown Edmonton. This statue sits in the lobby as you walk in the front door. I had to wait awhile to take a picture of it as they had barriers around it for several weeks until they put the finishing touches on the wall and the tiles on the floor around it.
It really is a very large statue but I was quite impressed with it the first time I saw it and I knew that I would get a chance to get a picture of it. So here it is. Have a great weekend everyone
