A statue of a black cow with white blotches is standing upright in a human position. It depicts the famous Marilyn Monroe photo of a street vent blowing her skirt upwards. The cow has a white dress on that is blowing upwards, while she tries to modestly hold the skirt down. Marilyn has red lipstick and red-painted hoofs. Her head is looking upward as she purses her lips. The statue is in front of the San Luis Obispo Repertory Theater in Downtown.

The Lightning Clock (2001) Sculptor: Andy Plant Location: The Royal Quays, North Shields. Materials: Copper, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron and Fibre Glass. The Lightning Clock is 30 ft high, consisting of two beaten copper spheres fixed to a stainless steel column resting on a cast iron base with a fibre glass weatherman figure. At the base of the column meteorological instruments give the temperature, wind speed and wind direction and barometric pressure. Like a giant Van Der Graaf Generator, two spheres balance on top of a metal lightning strike which has exploded into the ground. In the larger sphere the North Wind rests. On the smaller sphere the weatherman rests enjoying the calm. As the hour approaches, all comes to life, the weatherman pulls a lever, the sound of thunder is heard. The face of the North Wind rotates, eyes rolling, and blows out smoke to knock the weatherman off his feet. Gradually, the storm dies down, all is quiet again... until the next hour strikes.
A fine day in #NorthShields

Big sculpture of the skeleton of a Parasaurolophus dinosaur. From the inscription: "Inspired by a Parasaurolophus dinosaur that once walked the land in both the Delaware Valley and Mexico, this piece embodies both accurate science and the divine art in one sacred being. Carved by hand in colorful beads telling the story of a time with the symbols of the Lenni-Lenape tribe and the Huichol tribe of Mexico, becoming a bridge between two nations." The sculpture is mounted on a base of grey stone blocks topped with white stones. The picture is taken from below and at about a 45 degree angle to the left of the front. The background is mostly sky, with the tops of some trees, a street light, and the sloped roof of a building near the bottom.

Enable me to be alert and hear the weakest shout and quickly and efficiently to put the fire out.

And if ascending to my fate I am to lose my life please bless with your protecting hand my children and my wife.". On the bottom "FF Thomas Vaughan March 13, 1904 FF William J.
