Bronze Statues

In a town next to ours there are several life size statues of children and adults. This one is one of my favorites, especially, because it reminds me of John Wayne. If you click on the picture a second time after it has loaded it will show up even bigger and you can see the detail in these wonderful works of art.

All of the statues in Rancho Santa Margarita have children in them and they are all in one large shopping center within walking distance of each other, although they are spread pretty far apart. These statues are sitting on an actual bench in front of a Borders store in Rancho. The man reading to the children reminds me a lot of my father, George.
