Name the Toad Contest Winner
We have a winner! We had unofficially on Saturday picked two names that we liked, and were going to sit down on Sunday morning and discuss it with our staff… the runners-up were Samuari and Big Daddy.
On Sunday morning however, we read our e-mails and at 10:05 pm on Saturday night (with less than two hours remaining in the contest), the winning entry was submitted. Nancy Ison, whom I’m still waiting to hear from, suggested “Bluto” as the name of the frog. It was a hands down verdict here - Bluto was it. Congratulations to Nancy.
Bluto sits in our perennial garden directly in front of the office. A couple of days ago, there was a little baby toad that was hopping around in among the perennials and sat next to Bluto. I’m not sure if he (the baby) looked up or not! (See the Wikipedia for more on the origins of Bluto.)
