2. We missed this. We were exactly there, were they are, for the
rally. They left the mask on the statue. LOL!

3. Yeah, I think they have been using that same statue
for the last few weeks as this is not the first pic I have seen of it.

7. Forward is the state motto (which has seemed ironic lately)
Here's a good explanation:
http://madisonwidailyphoto.blogspot.com/2007/04/miss-forward-capitol-square.html


The statue, Miss Forward, is the personnification of the state motto "Forward." The official Miss Forward is gilded and rests atop the Capitol Dome, which is one of the most photographed sights in Madison. Nearly every time I am downtown, I see someone standing in the middle of State Street, taking a picture of the Capitol. I was not standing in the middle of State Street, as I fear being hit by a city bus or a speed demon bicyclist (with few exceptions, cars are banned on State Street).


He's wrong about the statue on top of the dome also being Miss Forward, however. That's Lady Rennebohm, pointing out the location of the next Rennebohm's drug store.
