Holy crap it's Jumbo!!!!!!
Last thing I expected to see here haha

My bf's dad has a house in Port Stanley, just south of St. Thomas. We drive through St. Thomas allll the time. That poor elephant - I think it's really quite grotesque to have a statue of an elephant that was KILLED in your town. You'd think they wouldn't want to memorialize that event LOL
The worst part is that there are several businesses in town named "Jumbo _____" with an image of him on their sign. How morbid

I will have to post my photo with Jumbo when I get home later

OK Devil's Tower always freaks me out (see Close Encounters of the Third Kind)
My bf likes to make it out of his mashed potatoes and say "This means something...this is important"

Hmmm well I don't know about landmarks in my hometown, though we are famous for Leader Dogs for the Blind.

I live near Detroit, though, so we've got Joe Louis' fist and the giant Uniroyal tire. Oh, and lots of abandoned buildings. lol.
