Seen recently on one of our regular Willow Glen rambles:
Although the dates on the sign say 1986-2016, we discovered that Rosie The Ribiter's Jumping Frog Jubilee record (21 feet 5 3/4 inches) still stands today. She probably croaked long ago, but her legend lives on thanks to a children's book by Darcy Pattinson.
* "Local" in the sense that her "coach" was from Santa Clara.
According to the book, she actually hailed from somewhere
along the San Joaquin River in the central valley

Wonder how many modern kids get that pun?
