That's a really big duck

Took a drive last weekend to see a model train show. One of the train layout had landmarks of LI on it and the princess noticed a large duck. The captain told her there really was a big duck,not far from where we were, so you know we had to go and show it to her. She didn't believe us until she saw it for herself. She wanted to go in but it was closed.

For those of you unfamiliar with LI, the duck has been around since the 1930's. First as a duck and egg stand and now as a seasonal souvenir stand. As children, my sisters and I begged our parents to go past the Big Duck on our adventures "out east". For more info about the Big Duck go to http://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/2173
