When we were there in January, Old Hitler wasn't hanging around -- he was laying on a trailer back where they store stuff. Looks like the big guy needs some repairs. Maybe he'll be back hanging where he belongs soon.

The shark was on a trailer, so it probably didn't go far in the marina lot. We'll keep it listed in the hope that it surfaces again.
