Pic of the Day - May 21
This is a hand-carved/painted stone elephant from India. Our rep in Mumbai (aka Bombay) gave him to me. He sits with the zebra from yesterday's pic on my work desk. This is another one of the menagerie (not glass; get it?).
So sweet - and such doleful eyes. Don't you dare let anyone kill him to steal his tusks, A.M. When I see the hideous practice on the news it upsets me so much that even after switching channels straight away I'm still moping for hours afterwards.
If we had purchased property in the county when we moved up here, The Princess would have been asking me to build a stable. Yikes! I dodged that bullet.
