Woonsocket waves goodbye to Santa

If they were going to do something like this, you would think they would let me know, so I could have gotten some photos of the departure. Could be he left in the dark of night....

    Oh...no... Santa's gone? Did you ever find out what happened? Maybe he just didn't like East School St.

    No, Tom, I know nothing. When I took my first set of photos in September 2005, I was not satisfied with the street-level vantage point. I tried to call Tinsel Town, whose name was on the side door and on the signs in the parking lot., to see if I could see Santa up close. The web gave me a phone number, but it was disconnected or there was no answer or they never called me back.

    What we really need in the Fiberglass Mascots group is a picture of Nibbles Woodaway, that big ant on I-95 before Providence. Oh, how I miss his insectoid presence. Is it still there? And if so, can you shoot it?

    That was such a familiar sight that I've stopped looking for it (until now I just assumed it was still there).
