Got a towel animal at BWV in July -- not sure if it was a seal or a bird, but definitely towel animal. And in Sept there was a towel animal in the 1BR at OKW. We left it there, poor thing had only one eye!
Years ago we had a terrific Mousekeeper at Dixie Landing ('cause in 98 that was the name). The best arrangement was of the kids' animals wearing sunglasses and watching other animals slide down a water slide (garbage bag)! That experience has yet to be topped.
