crane #433 in LA . . .

I received and e-mail this morning regarding crane #433 - originally found in Clovis, CA.

This has been sometime ago . . . so I was really excited to get the pictures.

I haven't been as consistent as I should be with this project, but I haven't given up . . . 

only 351 more cranes to go.  These pictures have inspired me to get going again.

This crane was dropped at Michelangelo's - Clovis, CA awhile ago.  For the first time I got out of order with my cranes . . . then let time pass without getting caught up.  It may take me awhile, but I will put 1000 paper cranes out there.
