Bronze Sculptures

This little known city north of here, called Loveland, is the bronze sculpture capital of the world. I took a tour of the foundry that is the largest bronze foundry in the world. It was a lot of fun to see how many people are involved in making one sculpture, but the highlight was Rocky.

Yes, the Rocky Balboa statue featured in the movies and now in Philadelphia was made in Loveland. They made another one for San Diego. They have made a third and it was in the warehouse today. I stood by it. It was great. Good story.
