Colder than a smile on stone frog lips. . .
Californians Sosie and Bill Shearer have expressed some angst about their upcoming Christmas trip to Minnesota. Sister Linda has suggested Sosie should remain calm; they do keep the roads plowed here, the former Colorado resident advises.
For our part, we'll provide objective information. This fine pair of stone frogs stands about two feet tall in our back yard. The sculpture was a gift from Sosie and Bill, who thought it just the thing for our garden.
While it is true that the frog riding piggyback is barely above the drift-line, the real message here is that, snuggled together, they just continue to smile, no matter what. Welcome to Minnesota, Sosie and Bill.
