If you've passed through Phoenicia in recent weeks, you may have noticed a certain someone missing from Main Street. A tall, racoon-capped tall statue of Davy Crockett usually looms over the front patio of the Sportman's Alamo Cantina, dominating Main Street with his leathery grin.
But since early May, Davy's been hiding out behind the restaurant as the Cantina renovates its patio seating area. Laura Levine, who owns Homer & Langley's Mystery Spot Antiques next door, snapped the above photo of the great woodsman bungeed to a tree.
Don't worry, though: The statue will be re-installed this summer as soon as contruction is finished, according to staff at the Cantina.
