Day 15.309: Churchill?

As we walked towards this imposing statue on the Western Promenade in Portland on Saturday we thought he looked a bit like Winston Churchill.


It turns out there is a “Churchill” connection - the sculptor’s impressive name was Burr Churchill Miller. As if that wasn’t enough the plaque lists the subject as being called “Thomas Brackett ‘Czar’ Reed” - it definitely gives a certain impression even without any other information.
