Made me giggle
July 7, 2020And speaking of statues . . .
These Guardians of Transportation attend the Hope Memorial Bridge connecting Cleveland’s east and west sides. The scale of these monumental pylons make them difficult to photograph, but I remember being captivated by the detail and art deco loveliness when I was still a kid and we drove across the bridge. The carved figures are on both sides of the four pylons. The guardians each hold a symbol of transportation in their hands.
I would hate to see what these guys could do if they decided to strike back at the statue topplers.
I LOVE IT!!

What they have always recalled to my mind were the images described as the hobbits and the 9 flowed down the river to Gondor. Just before the breakup and Sam and whossname taking off alone into Mordor.
