Caged lion

Old State House lion in a cage

See it larger.

The Bostonian Society took down the lion and the unicorn from the Old State House today for renovations. Jocelyn was there to watch them cage the lion, no doubt to make sure he didn't escape and try to re-assert his royal authority over the colony.

On the upcoming vote in Scotland? Separation of the Lion and Unicorn... Hmm.

The mane and roar of imperial royalty is no match for the glorious snood and gobble delivered aloft on indigenous wings of liberty!

Now we can find out for sure if it does have a time capsule.

By Skylight Studios, the same studio in Woburn that's doing the current restoration. I wonder why the capsule wasn't found then..
