CEDAR CITY — The iconic cow that adorned the roof of Cedar City's Top Spot Drive Inn for decades was taken down for the last time on Wednesday afternoon.
As longtime restaurant owners Craig and Ann Barton and several of their family members watched, the black-and-white fiberglass bovine was lowered from the roof via a rope.
Almost immediately, the Bartons' granddaughter Mattie and her younger brother Mason took turns climbing onto the cow's back and posing for photos.
Although it was far from the first time the unnamed cow had been removed from the building's roof, it will be the last, Ann Barton said as she promised that the treasured relic would be given a good home.
