Dino Rage

I am devastated to learn that someone managed to tip or pull over the giant orange dinosaur that sits in the mini-golf course on Rte 1 South. Full story in the Herald is here.

The owner says that he will rise again, just like Jesus (seeing as the event took place on Easter Sunday, I'm glad she has a sense of humor about it). I sure hope he does. I love that thing. And once he's back up, I'm totally going to go visit him. 20 plus years of driving by and smiling is too long.

When I first came to the area for college in 1984 (when some of you was wearin' dipeys) I loved seeing this dino on the side of the road. My kids say "Hi Dinosaur!" when we drive past. As I've recently gotten crazy with taking a lot of photos for my flickr account, I had intended for a good long time to swing by there, park, and go photograph my favorite fiberglass orange beast.
