T Stands for Leo, Henry's Cousin

 Iris from the beautiful, German city of Braunschweig shows off images of Henry the Lion, the city mascot on her blog, Double-Half or One Ten without ham. I was disappointed I never saw any lions around when out and about and then one day I was wearing a ring that Himself and I gave to my dad,

 and then I started to see Leo, Henry's cousin.

Here is one of the lions at the main entrance to the McKim Building (the Old Library) at the Boston Public Library. My father told me his Uncle Manny was one of the stonecutters that carved the lions. I've blogged about that here.

This was from a video of a lion cub playing with his Dad's tail. Dad was not amused.

While cleaning the basement, I remembered the souvenir stein from a trip to Germany when I was in high school. Would anyone care for a big gulp of tea? beer? wine?
