Tim and I drive through the town of Vernal every month, and each month we look forward to viewing "Dino" in his seasonal attire and adornments.
Last week I introduced readers to "Dino", the unofficial mascot of Vernal. In this post I present a photo essay of "Dino" as he is displayed throughout the year. Enjoy!
| January-February Dino plays cupid for love-struck passers-by. |
| March Dino honors the legendary Dr. Suess's birthday on March 2nd, with this tribute to his books. |
| March-April Happy Easter! |
| May Dino holds a sign with a photo of himself as a hatchling, and a touching shout-out to Mom which reads: "Mommy You're The Best!". |
| June Here's to the class of 2015! |
| July Happy Birthday, America! |

| August-September The top photo shows Dino enjoying a cookout, along with the garden's late-summer bounty of watermelon and pumpkin. In the bottom photo Dino is all aglow for nighttime. |
| October. A large and furry spider spins its web around Dino, and he doesn't even seem to care! |
| November Dino is ready to take the turkey out of the oven. |
| December Merry Christmas from Santa Dino! |
