The Bear

This is an old life-sized wooden bear in our town's center square which has undergone years of repairs (most recently his nose). I just love small town America :)

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?

[Aaron]

@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.

What a great sculpture! Such detail went into it!

[Aaron]

@groovygirlrn Yep, lots of TLC :)

[Terry]

what talent it took to do that

[Aaron]

@sarasdadandmom I agree Terry :)

[Graham Harcombe]

Beauty - and not the 'usual' bear carving.

[Aaron]

@ellida I know exactly what you're talking about Graham, this one is pretty cool!

[Aaron]

@northy Thanks Northy!

[Rick Schies]

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

[Aaron]

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