Dubuque, Iowa - Pink Elephant

Pocahontas, Iowa, has a hideous statue of its namesake. Another major attraction is the Black Angel in a cemetery in Iowa City. Up near Dubuque there used to be a pink elephant alongside the road, but I'm not sure if it is still there.

[RA: Our image database reveals a top-hatted pink elephant statue adjacent to the Pink Elephant Motel and Supper Club, in Marquette, IA "Overlooking the Mississippi."]
