Guerilla Knitta - Is Go!

Tagged A Cactus


mmm-hmmmm.


....not Sew Easy....


And a Little Jumpy


Trying To Do My First Knit Graffiti


T. and I saying to eachother


"It's not a Big Deal, It's Really Not a Big Deal...."


As Cars & People Whiz By


And then I hear him say


"Heyyy, Uhhh, We Weren't The First..."
Come Look At This !"


Ha ~ How Could We have Missed Them ?


The More I looked, The More There Were

All of these Little Faces and ...


Thinggss


Hiding Out


All Thru The Cactus


Maybe They Were Little Guardians or Something....


Because Then I Saw THIS


And Heard My Partner in Tag Crime hisssss

"Someone's Coming! Come On! COME ! ON !"

I shooshed him and hissed back
"Just go Mr. Chicken, I want some more pictures of these"

Not Really Thinking Anyone WAS coming...


And Thats When , I Met Ed.

After explaining I was just interested in his Cactus Faces
He Took me all thru them again

shoot shoot shoot

I was hoping to make a Clean Get Away...

But we were getting Closer and CLOSER to IT


Stopping in His Tracks when He Saw

"What The Hellll Is That ?"

eep.

"Well That is For You and...."

Here, I tried to Explain

But He seemed to Not Want to See or Hear

And went on Talking about how
He Sometimes Comes out and with his pocket knife
Carves the Cactus

~ gulp ~

.okay.this.is.going.well.

I let Him TALK

And Finally He Turned and Walked Over

To IT

And Said

"Well, That's A Trip !"

And stood nodding.

:::whew:::::::::::::::


Then He Explained To Me
That This Horse He Once Sculpted
Was Hit By A Car
And Now has it's Legs Buried Beneath it....

Then, He Insisted I Come Down the Path
To Shoot His Wagon Wheel Against The Fence
Because It Should Really Be A PostCard

And that , That Wagon Wheel
Had Been On The Purina Cat Chow Wagon
at One Time.


...And So, Into The Compound
I Disappeared....
Where He Also showed me His Lantern Collection


Then Gave A Lengthy Dissertation
About The Historical Significance and Age
Of ThIs Square Bottomed Lantern....


He Knew All The Names of The Cactus He Grew


He had A Parrot and A Bunch of Old Cars


A HUGE Rock with a Natural Seat on it
and Made Sure I Saw That


It all Went On For Quite Some Time


And I was CRACKING UP In My Head
Imagining T. Out In The Car
Wondering What He Should Do
Where I Was
IF He Should Worry....
and WHY wasn't I coming Back Out
Of This Place


"Get In The Car ! Get-in-the-carrr!"
Laughing & Flapping While He said it
When I opened the door.


I had politely Excused Myself From Ed Finally,
Promising To Come Again Another Time
After He Extended The Invitation
To Myself AND the Person In The Car.


Some Adventure Grrrl+Dog !


Some Adventure You Sparked Here !


I thought I was only going to Post One Picture.

I thought, I would just Go Out
