31st May Cows on Patrol

Went to Edinburgh today on business, I've so much to do at our head office I could have done witout the visit, but it was good day and we got a lot covered.

Cows everywhere in Edinburgh for the "Cow Parade" running between May 15th - July 23rd 2006 over 100 cows on display all sponsored by various charities. I was told that a "Cow" hospital has been set up to perform repairs etc. for any damaged Cow.

There's a town here with the same brightly coloured cows dotting the street ! Fun things.

What a great find! In Saint Paul (Minnesota) for the last few years they've had several "Peanuts on Parade" statues (Charlie Brown, Lucy, Snoopy, Linus, etc) in honor of native Charles Schultz. Those were modeled on "Cows on Parade" from Chicago, which was modeled on these elsewhere in the US and Europe.

Great shot! They dressed up sheep in our town last year. Always fun to look at!
