The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for May 12, 2019

Fifty feet traveled, that’s farther then I did.

They couldn’t skate around that problem.

They wouldn’t have used horses. Oxen are stronger.

I do not know a lot about wagon trains, because a lot of my ancestors were confined to the Fort Sill reservation.

Don’t get it..??

@ uniquename A standard measurement is approximately the time from when the red light turns green till the car behind you blows it`s horn. It may very somewhat but is still accurate enough for most calculations.

Thar be a reason fer thet!

“Wagons D’Oh!”

I had the same problem as a boy and running through the pastures.

They started out so quickly…

Hey, watch your language?

Sometimes this is a funny cartoon. Sometimes.

But wagon trains did go in line. That’s why they were called wagon “trains.” I never seen a dozen wagons going side by side. The roads or paths aren’t that wide.

Sadly wagon train master was ever named Yuzuru or Tessa or Mirai.

Can someone explain this cartoon?
