Mudgy & Millie Downtown Again

From Coeur d'Alene Today: "Mudgy Moose and Millie Mouse have been spotted downtown again! This time they are gracing a utility box near the corner of Fifth Street and Sherman Avenue. The artwork created by Charles Reasoner for the book "Mudgy & Millie," by Susan Nipp, was selected by the Coeur d'Alene Arts Commission for its Utility Box Beautification Project. The art, on a special vinyl wrap, was installed Friday. Our thanks to Library Foundation member Benjamin Drake for this photo. Proceeds from the sale of "Mudgy & Millie" books and merchandise benefit the Coeur d'Alene Public Library Foundation. The book was also the inspiration for the Mudgy Trail throughout downtown which features five lifesize Mudgy and Millie bronze statues created by sculptor Terry Lee.

Question: Who else besides me has read the Mudgy & Millie story & followed the Mudgy & Millie Trail all about the downtown?
