Alki resident Earl Cruzen, responsible for the "Children Walking on Logs" sculpture, can no longer manage to be caretaker of the grounds under which the bronzes stand. He says he needs help with the out-of-control growth and the sculptures themselves.
As we reported here, West Seattle historian Earl Cruzen was frustrated nobody seemed to be interested about keeping up the landscaping under the "Children Walking on Logs" bronze children sculptures he helped create.
West Seattleites pass his "children" on the right when exiting the West Seattle Bridge. Often they are wearing T-shirts to promote a charity or event.
Cruzen was also instrumental in organizing the 11 murals that decorate various buildings near the Alaska Junction.
Now 89, Cruzen drives his Subaru wagon to the sculpture with his weed wacker tossed in the back. But he is recovering from an artery issue and is not too sure on his feet.
If interested in helping Earl Cruzen, please call him at (206) 932-2345.
