Just passing through

This car proudly displayed its recent attendance at a convention in Pittsburgh aimed at people who love to dress up in adult-sized furry animal costumes.

As far as I can tell from the Internetz, if you’re on a date with someone who confesses this “furry" hobby, you should probably say something like “I’m so sorry we can’t ever ever see each other again. You see, my last boyfriend was a Morris Dancer, and even that was way too much for me.”

Another quirky vehicle. This time, it was a whole collection of frogs and stuff, on the dash, on the console, more or less everywhere.

Last night we were driving home from dinner with our friend Arlene who is passing through on her way up north when we saw this the Vermont Joy Parade bus parked outside of the laundromat that closed last year and it seemed it might be a Thing Worth Photographing.

Based on their website, and especially this good piece of writing about their life on the road, it probably was.

I’m not sure how truly sad I am to have missed their show. Although I think I would really like the music, maybe all the rest of the production would have been a little much. Still, I hope they had a big crowd last night and that they find a way to keep on keeping on.

In Brattleboro, it’s perfectly okay to fix your Prius with duct tape.

As long as it’s green duct tape.

Brattleboro has more than its share of quirky vehicles. Here’s an old Honda CB-360 with a duct tape and baling wire sidecar, a bunch of spare tires, an opaque windscreen, and a couple of jerricans.
