Who goes there? Wolf or a coyote?

Artist: Cash Akoza

I’m a coyote, but I’m practicing to be a wolf.

Artist: Cash Akoza

Whoa, just hold on there!

Artist: Cash Akoza

I’m pretty sure once a coyote, always a coyote. Check out Cindy Knoke’s pictures of coyotes that she took!  Click on the pic, and it will take you to her coyotes.

Not so fast little buddy! I’m going to ask my cousin Wilbear. He lives on a shipping container across town.

Artist: Cash Akoza

Howdy Beary! I’d say he’s a coyote.

Artist: Cash Akoza

Well, maybe you guys aren’t Grizzly Bears?

Artist: Cash Akoza

 As sure as you and Beary live in the same mural, Beary and I are grizzlies. I’d like to add if people click on the mural above, they can see how splendid it is.

Can you name of these toy characters? Better yet did you have any of them or purchase any of these for kids?

I’m confident you identified the Star Wars characters as C-3PO, R2D2, Yoda, and the X-Wing fighter flown by the Rebel Alliance. Did you get Strawberry Shortcake holding the Spirograph wheel and the bear she made from Play-Doh? Cheer Bear (one of the original Care Bears)? Stay Puft Marshmallow Man (from Ghostbusters) on Batman’s back?

Surely you got Mr. Potato Head! But, did you recognize The Purple Pieman feeding a pie from the Easy Bake Oven to the T-Rex from Jurassic Park? The fury animal from the Littlest Pet Shop in the Ghostbusters’ vehicle? The character and car from M.A.S.K. (Mobile Armored Strike Kommand)?

This ArtWorks mural – Cincinnati’s Toy Heritage – located at 23 West Court Street in downtown Cincinnati – is a tribute to Kenner Toys –…

Flying Away by Sath Flying Away, Used by Permission of Sath

We fly past the stars on silver wings,
rushing wind without and within.
All of life unfolds its answers
until we wake.
Alone.
