Sydney the Hobo

Syd came upstairs tonight and announced she had decided to hit the road as a hobo. She had her hobo sack ready and everything. She even took it apart and told me why she had put the things in that she had. Here is what she said:

1. During the day I will use the blanket as a sack and at night it will double as a blanket.
2. I brought paper and a pen so I can keep track of where I have been.
3. I brought a telescope and binoculars, but maybe I only need one of those. I think I will put the telescope away and keep the binoculars.
4. I am taking Mr. Alien with me so he can keep me company. The little red container is his house.
5. I am taking a ball with me because it's important to have some entertainments.
6. This is a fold-down brush. I will need to brush the snarls out of my hair.
Pocket-knife. (I forgot to number that one). You never know when it might come in handy.
Just as a side note: Syd used a curtain rod as her stick in her hobo sack.



So Syd is ready to go. She wanted to be sure that I knew that she wasn't really going to run away but that the hobo sack could also be used as an emergency kit. She just went to bed and the hobo sack is strategically placed at the foot of her bed. In case she needs it in the middle of the night.
