Return of the Cutthroat


Here in Colorado, kids who are in the fourth grade get to spend a good portion of the school year focusing on Colorado history.  For my kids, it was their favorite year of elementary school.  One of the things they did during that year was learning all of our state symbols, including our state fish the Greenback Cutthroat Trout. Amongst the many sculptures in downtown Golden, Colorado is this piece known as Return of the Cutthroat.  These fish can be found along the banks of Clear Creek in Parafet Park.  They sit near a kids' slide, so it's not unusual to see little ones riding on their backs bucking bronco style.
