Sleep? Holiday weekend? Not me, I'm getting my "Dust Buggy" 4 wheeler ready for the upcoming parade on Monday. Being with the Shriner Clown unit this is the time of year when we start getting real busy with parades, hospital visits, special Olympics, special Rodeos and the State Fair (that one is a parade every day at 7pm for 28days). Then there's the planning for the Shrine Circus which I've been made "Circus Daddy". Gonna have 3 Circuses next year! Then of course my end of contract work with HP at end of September. Gonna have to start lookin' for a job again. Here I thought I was going to "chillax" as I got older and retiring twice! riiiiggggghhhtttt ! LOL

I'm the one with the puppet (right side pic). I call him (puppet) "Woodchip" and that's what all the kids know him by although some call him Elmo or Animal. I go by "Sawdust" (duh?). haha I think Woodchip is the main attraction though. When I visit children in hospitals and they don't feel like talking, they just enjoy seeing him move around and act silly and like giving him hugs. Same when I visit kids that don't speak English and only speak Spanish, I let them know that he's Bi-lingual and we start to converse in Spanish. Yup.. Woodchip is a pretty good "ice breaker" with kids in getting them to open up a little. Don't know why it took me so long to figure out why I'm here and supposed to do! ha ha The guy right below me (Blue Hair) is SLUG. He's 86yrs old and always wanted to be a clown so we hooked him up. He uses a walker (which I made the walker license plate for.. thanks someone here on the forum) and the kids love him. His granddaughter says he moves so slow she gave him the name Slug!
