Fun shot! "Harvard", a dairy town in IL, has a Cow and a Milk Day Parade every year! Small town America, :-) !

Great shot! You can't help but wonder how long it took the person to carve it....how big is it?

@iimage Haha, sounds fun!
@allisonrap It had to have taken quite a while, months at least! It is life sized; nearly shoulder-height at the top of his back.

A wonderful sculpture, and the film does not appear to be effected by its expiration

@digitalrn Thanks Rick! Sometimes it's hit or miss with this old film, but I am pretty happy with this roll!
