3:00 snapshot #1050: My dad and the giant rabbits of Dedham

[urbpan]

Last Saturday my dad came to visit and I drove him around to see the Giant Rabbits.










Here's a close-up of my favorite one, called "Townie."


We also found a fish made of scrap metal.


And a beer.

I haven't found all of them, myself. (Though that one at the Mall makes me grin. It has a spoiler!) Where's Townie?

[urbpan.livejournal.com]

Townie is at Whole Foods. Still haven't found 5 of them

If giant animal statuary is your thing (one of your things?) you ought to visit the giant frogs of Willimantic, CT.

It isn't my thing, but it certainly is my dad's thing. I'll tell him about willimantic.

where to find the rabbits!

Oooh and you have a little park by the overpass with a hotel clock in it :-) That's classy. Even without a gigantic sunflower-yellow rabbit with flowers all over it :-)
