World's Largest Tooth

Well I drove out to Trenton to take photos of the World's Largest Tooth. After driving around and around and not seeing it, I gave up. I remember seeing it from the train last year so I knew it was close to the tracks.

I emailed the Grounds for Sculpture people and found out that it was extracted for repairs (decay perhaps?) and is heading to Florida to take part in an exhibition. It will then travel for a bit (who knew how much fun a tooth could have) before coming back to New Jersey late next year.
