Imagine my surprise after Thanksgiving when an e-mail came as a result of my Diggin' Dinosaurs series. Elizabeth Giese, a commercial real estate closer in the Twin Cities, contacted me because she and her husband are the proud owners of three of the Diggin' Dinos! How exciting! She wrote telling me of the dinosaurs' new home, two of which will live at her primary residence and the third (Comcastasaurus II) with its beach theme will live by the lake at their vacation home. I'm not sure this kind of contact is my broker's picture of networking, but I love meeting new people this way.
What great luck for me. Liz had purchased one of the two dinos which I had not photographed. My request for pictures was granted and she added a few of the truck that delivered the beasties to her home. She willingly tromped through the snow (remember our first snowstorm), brushed off the dinosaurs, and sent me the fantastic pictures in the slide below. Thanks, Liz, for going to all that work. Should I suggest your dinosaurs be "fruitful and multiply"? Probably not.
Corey, I'd love to see the new photos of your dino. I haven't yet posted your dino, but it's coming and when I do, I'll try to remember the link above.

Hi Bonnie, its cool to see the photos here. Our company sponsored one of the dinosaurs, Autism Spectrum-a-saurus, on behalf of an Autism center, Holland Center. It has now been relocated to the clinic there in Excelsior, MN, next to Adelle's Frozen Custard. The staff and the kids love it.
Here are photos from this past summer:

(The puzzle piece is a common symbol of Autism.)
We'll have to snap some new photos of it next to Holland Center now.

Carole, Some of the dinos have returned to their places of origin and some are popping up in other lands. It all depends on what their owners want to do with them. Candyland's dino disappeared and the Peanuts gang is back there. There are still others that I haven't checked out.

ooooh the dinos on the flatbed! How delightful. I hope they have a return ticket. Our guitars are still outside not sure why. Snow will show up eventually!
