November 28, 2018 (La Mesa) – Toby the T-Rex sported turkey garb on Thanksgiving week. The iconic dinosaur statue was erected on the future site of La Mesa Summit Estates by developer Jeff Phair, owner of the Phair Company.

The statue first showed up on the site in September and was adorned with a tutu for Halloween.  What may be next?  An elf or Santa suit?

Phair has said that Toby will remain as a permanent addition in a park that will be part of the new housing development planned on the hilltop site.
