When I was 5 years old, my uncle made me this wonderful wooden elephant. I named it Ellie. It was a favorite item in our house growing up. I sat on it into my college years when watching movies and tv. It had grey ears, but I would pull at the pleather and have since pulled off the outer covering, other than that it is in great condition.
The other day we pulled it out of storage for Isaac. He loves riding on it and climbing on it. It is so fun to see my son enjoy this piece of Basden history. Thank you Uncle Ron for such a great heirloom. I am sure one day our grandkids will be playing on it as well.
