Wow, what a fabulous site both Stef and Barbara presented us challengers with today! Thanks to both.
Our task today was to select inspiration from a darling one-woman shop of wonderfully creative childrens' toys and accessories. I opted for the Vilac Push Cars seen here:
My cars, actually school buses, used to run fairly well on the 'home's' road trip until our very own Fruitcake toppled the bus when 1 of the russian satellite spys was maneuvering her glasses to take sensitive photos of the on board passengers for the Kremlin. They like to see how the US treats its elderly. Luckily, all have been accounted for: The only mishap was our sweet Peggy-Sue was ousted from her position as Executive Director and is now, so I've been told, pounding the pavement #when she's not hitting the bottle# in search of another position. UPDATE: I do believe she's on to something ~ cast director at the local HS for yearly plays. You go, girl. I knew something would turn up sooner rather later.
Thanks to Peggy-Sue for the SU rubons!

And the wheels on the bus go round and round
Upside down
All about town
with Ms. Ryan driving the nursing home bound
Bwaaa-haaa-haaaa! Sweet Anne, I have no idea what you're talkin' about, but it's one heck of a story, and I can only imagine is Peggy Sue is involved somehow.
