Unicorns

What fun! Good on whoever is spreading this little bit of joy. "Finding a unicorn in Providence is like, well, finding a unicorn. Locals have spotted the mythic beasts perched in window sills, sitting on steps and laying in plain sight on streets. They elicit amusement from their claimants, who stash them away and carry them home. One took hers to drinks at a local bar. Their less than two-inch stature makes them easy to miss. But their neon hues and satin-like sheen catch the eye of the hunter, who might almost walk by before realizing they’ve stumbled upon a treasure. Such was the case with this Providence Journal reporter who, after two excursions through the city on a Monday, found one resting in the window of Nick-a-Nees, the South Street watering hole."
