Tuesday my Red Hats went to Auburn to see the bronze statues that are displayed there done by J. Seward Johnson. This is the smallest town they have ever been displayed in before. They have been in Paris and many large citys. It cost the town of Auburn $45,000 to rent them and $40,000 for the insurance to have them there. They are really something to see. They are pretty lifelike. On the close up of the woman who has been working in her garden, you can see the sweat running down her face!
There are twenty scattered over the town. Mostly around the courthouse. I will post several pictures, but if you get the chance to see them - DO. They will be in Auburn until September 15th.
