An elephant in Jackson?? Yup!

Jake and I had the opportunity to take an assignment together, and it was a random one. All that was said was people think there is an elephant in someone's front yard... My first question: How does someone get an elephant in their front yard.
These kinds of assignments make my job a lot of fun. She put on a show for us and tried to steal my pen I think, but she was sweet. Enjoy the story of the Laura the elephant.
