Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for September 14, 2021

Scooter and his pet person Clarence, enjoy pretending to be Calvin and Hobbes.

OMG! What has he been missing!

Nothing to see here. Move along.

Mr Gurney now has to work all day with wet pant bottoms. No wonder he bought the large economy size bottle of Roundup from the Ballard Garden and Eclair Store. Clarence will soon find himself sliding bare.

Does the club have or set up “Toboggan Crossing” signs along the sidewalk?

Using Suds for tobogganing also helps get the grass stains out of the … er … grass.

The equipment for this sport is inexpensive. In fact, it’s a real boggan.

They’re are so many clubs on Ballard Street.

If you join one, you’ll want to join others.

So THINK before getting involved with the toboggan club, Mr Gurney….

You’ll find it’s a slippery slope.

They are setting up a luge and half pipe at the Ballard Street Laundromat & Toboggan Club House.

Clarence is also a charter member of the Sponge Bob Square Pants Club. As evidenced by his blue checked square paints.

Mr Gurney is praising the almighty that he left his home 4 1/2 seconds late.

“Hold my Suds and watch this!”

Guessing Mr Gurney is going to join that club.. looks. like a lot of fun and much better than slogging to work.

And elsewhere… The Mrs. is wondering why she’s going through laundry detergent so fast…

Being a Gurney, he certainly has the wheels to join the sport, and he’ll also be strapped in and ready for transport in case of an accident.

Calling Mr. Gurney! Code blue on the hill.
