Harbie




This guy stands guard at an RV park on Harbor Blvd. in Garden Grove, CA pretty near to Disneyland next to the Target I think of as the Disneyland Target. I've always wondered what creature he was - a beaver gone aquatic, tadpole with buck teeth and arms?

When I looked at this picture I saw a name on his base - Harbie! Turns out this was the mascot of Harbor Gas a local gas station chain and there are some other Harbies still around.

The RV Park is interesting too. You have to park in the rear, but you can stay all night:
