tripperfunsterFriday was a good day! All of the planning and begging during the week finally started to pay off.
Item#31 (long explanation …) Let's see you handing $1.14 (or your country's equivalent) to an employee of an oil refinery, oil transportation or oil extraction company while they hand you one gallon of crude oil.
We already had the costume, so we figured we'd better use it!
item#127 Hang glide or parachute fully dressed as one of the Gishwhes mascots.
Well, I sure as hell was not going to jump out of a plane!
Item#183 Give a resident of a senior's home a little boost or act of kindness.
Hee! This is my mother in law, and she's actually in a hospital, not a senior's residence, but she IS on the geriatric floor, so … same thing? I love this photo. I am hamming it up, and she is giving the camera a total Jack Benny look.
Item#111 In honour of Don Quixote, in a Spanish city, search for adventure riding whatever your steed might be in front of a recognizable landmark.
My dear friend SRA_Danvers (Marta) got this for me. Such a gorgeous archway! Thanks Marta!
Item #157 Reimagine and repurpose a phone booth. Show a passer-by using it in a unique way.
Julie actually dropped trou' in a busy gas station parking lot for this one. Finding a phone booth was crazy hard, and eventually we went DUH! and called the phone company to see where we could find one.
Item#144 A live bull in a china shop.
Way harder than you might think.
The 'bull' (really a cow) did NOT want to participate. But she was lovely, once she actually came inside.
