Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for August 30, 2024

The mailman on the other hand..

Skuffy is off to show Scooter the right way to scoot.

Wait ‘til Little Miss Millie High Maintenance sees me in my new convertible. I’ll give her a ride, her ears flapping in the wind. That Police dog is gonna be so jealous.

Skuffy would enjoy the scooter even more if it was able to steer. That’s Mrs. Fluffington at 12 o’clock and she’s coming up fast in 3, 2, 1,…

skuffy is VERY proud of his new ride!!

Better keep that tail away from the exposed drive belt or it might be involuntarily docked.

Limo? That’s a stretch…

From ankle-biter to ankle-crasher…

Welp, off to play Bumper-Cars with the Roomba! ☺

Now Skuffy scoots across the carpet in style.

Good morning Balladeers!

Stuffy has not mastered turning yet and Eugenia’s prize petunias are about to get mowed down.

With the assistance of Mr. Briggs and Mr. Stratton, Skuffy has escaped to nirvana.

Scooter likes it too.

There was a teenager in my son’s neighborhood who made a scooter that looks a lot like Skuffy’s. It had no muffler and was so incredibly loud.

The better with which which to terrorize the local squirrels.

He should be Scooter. Scooter is skuffy now that he rolled in mud.

Good night, Ballard Dears!
