LOL - how cool is that though? Its been in Central Park since the 1800s - they had the translations on plaques around it
Glad it's not covered in graffiti
And that really is cool!

Before the turmoil over there, they were trying to make a move to get it back. Not often you see something 3,600+ years old! I knew it was up there but I'd not walked that far north in the park until now

Tom sees it every day when he looks in the mirror.
He does look young for his age though.....

It was a feat just to move the thing here in the 1800's, imagine creating and placing it back then?

Amazing to think, not only being able to carve/make it, but about how they stood it up the very first time around too.

Are you out yet?
Has the smite set in yet?
Smite has set in for sure...
I have been rationing the last few...think there is II left.
Would it make you feel better if I restocked my supply today?
Down to 1 left.
Still have the sardines and blueberry muffin mix though.
