A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please. Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child and I join in as do a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another.

As you know I LOVE Calvin and Hobbes. And that is one of many truths contained in the series.

ReplyDeleteLee; he's in The Advertiser here and I cut out the cartoon with each paper I get and save them in a folder.

DeleteI ♥ Calvin
ReplyDeleteMy wife bought all of the books
Author R. Mac Wheeler; I'd love to have all the books, but it's going to take quite a bit more saving before I think about ordering them. I'll have them eventually.
DeleteSuch a magnificent series. Translated into every language.
ReplyDeleteJoanne; every language? That's impressive. And not at all surprising.
DeleteCalvin was one smart little boy. A little diabolical at times, maybe. :) Remember the armies of snowmen he made?
ReplyDeleteSusan; yes, diabolical, I loved his snowmen ideas. I wish I had half his imagination.
DeleteNot familiar with him but no one can argue the wisdom of that statement.
ReplyDeleteArkansas Patti; I think you should google Calvin & Hobbes cartoons and get familiar with him.
