At first I thought it was a pick-axe... Hey, ay least it's not still attached to the boat! There used to be an actual New York Tug Boat next to one of the rotaries here as part of a restaurant- but someone bought it after 30 years on land n put it back to work in the water again!
It's a really pretty park, Mia, with benches scattered all over. I'm generally there with the dogs so sitting is never an option - lol!
lol, Snaggle! How neat about the tug boat.
Lynn, we have two small rivers that bisect the city and the nearest large body of water (big enough for the need of a huge anchor) is about 20 or so miles away.
Also wanted to let you know that I added your site to my blog roll because I love it. But it is stuck at the bottom of the list. It never updates with your latest post - it displays the one titled "All the world's atwitter" from a few weeks ago, but goes to the current post when I click on it. Just random oddness - I mainly just wanted to let you know that I have you on my roll. :)
This is a great photo. An anchor without a purpose, interesting. It only holds its self in place, cast off by something or someone who had a desire to freely float along the stream of life, not satisfied to be anchored in any way shape or form.
Thank you, Lynn. I'm loving your blog, too, and you're on my Favorite Places to Visit on the Web list here. Who wouldn't want to visit a blog where Good Things Happen? Positive and delightful!
Thank you, Mark. It is one of those "hmmmm..." things I ponder when I go through that park.
Great to see you, Steve! Thank you!
Jannie, it might be that it's getting late, but I cracked up (and groaned a little!). ROFLMAO! And darn it - I don't have a witty comeback!

Anchored, huh Talon? :)
I hope there's a bench nearby. I could ponder that anchor for hours.
I like the way you see it :)

Are you near water? What's that about? I agree, pretty cool.
Molly, it certainly seems that way :)
Thanks, Nisha!

Well, if you give us any updates on it, I suppose it could then be a "News Anchor." Groooooan!
:)

I kind of picture the kind of anchor as Ted on Mary Tyler Moore. What was his last name? He was in love with Georgette, I recall.
I loved MTM....and his last name was Baxter. You're right - he and Georgette ended up getting married.
