My dad would take me fishing here as a young boy. It was real special we would rise up and leave and be on the road as at dawn. We would catch sun fish with red and white bobbers – fish about the size of your hand. We would use a row boat. One time I tried to pick a liliy pad bloom for mom and I didn't notice but got stung by a bee in the flower getting nectar.

I once road my bike or walked all the way from home in Roseville to the fair. I remember putting nickels in a machine the would grab old time photos for you.

Art Sculptures at Como Park
This standing figure of Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller was dedicated in 1907. The sculpture was donated by U.S. German Societies of Saint Paul and private citizens of German descent to commemorate the renowned German philosopher, poet, and dramatist, Johann von Schiller. He was born in 1759 and is known for his enthusiastic optimism. His works gave vitality to the lives of many Germans.

Art Sculpture at Marjorie McNeely Conservatory
This bronze sculpture was created in 1925 by Harriet Frishmuth. She worked in the Beaux-Arts Style, a style characterized by a lively naturalism that reflected the optimism of the turn of the century.
In 1916, Frishmuth was introduced to Desha, a popular concert dancer. Desha became the model for many of Frishmuth's most successful sculptures. Frishmuth was known for decorative and useful objects, such as bookends and playful fountains. Crest of the Wave is considered one of Frishmuth's finest achievements.
