Missing: Minneapolis Cherry
Minneapolis is missing its cherry.
The Spoonbridge and Cherry sculpture, which is the most iconic image of Minneapolis, is in a state of repair.
The cherry was taken down a couple weeks ago and is getting spiffed up with a new coat of paint.
The cherry's removal made the news when it was taken down. I'd forgotten, though, that it was gone and was startled to see the naked spoon when I strolled through the Sculpture Garden the other day.People were still snapping photos of it though. As did I. In all my life, I've never seen this spoon without its cherry.
Here's a shot from a few summers back of what it's supposed to look like.

Ha ha ha ha! Lol. I have so many obscene comments running through my head! And you probably weren't even thinking about it that way when you posted this...or were you?

Of course I thought about those things. I'm a witty gal. I knew what I was doing. :)
