Paul Bunyan Day

In Bemidji, Minnesota, there is a 26-foot-tall statue of Paul Bunyan and an 8-foot-tall statue of his blue ox, Babe. In Bangor, Maine, there is a 31-foot-tall Paul Bunyan. In Akeley, Minnesota, there is another one. In Klamath, California, there is another one. Paul Bunyan is the biggest thing in small towns across America. He represents the idea that the frontier was so big it needed a man so big he could drag a river with his bare hands. The story is a myth. The statue is real. The coffee shop next to it serves pancakes the size of a hubcap.
