Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for August 13, 2022

He planned a trip to Idaho, just to watch potatoes grow. (Weird Al Yankovic song)

Another escape plan thwarted.

what are they? schools start at different times in different areas

Bus-ted…

A father and son discussing the future; so beautiful!

He got on the wrong bus on purpose to get out of going to school.;D

Is it really starting already? It’s still August.

Maybe he wanted to go to Idaho instead of school?

This kid cracks me up. Today’s strip was my LOL start to my day :D

Always the adventurer, aren’t you Hammie?

It probably wasn’t am accident. If I had a sister like Zoe, I’’d take the bus going to Alaska.

how was Idaho?

he was just looking for some fries

“They have schools in Idaho, too, Hammy.”

“Rats!”

I still remember taking the Green Bus in kindergarten …

Should have let him go to Idaho.

I like Idaho.

In our very rural high school, I had one classmate who literally lived “right down the road”. It was often a toss-up whether she would ride the bus or walk. Frustrated the bus drivers immensely.

Darryl……Darryl………Darryl! Hammie got on a bus for Idaho and you brought him back? This is now your fault Darryl.

I worry about an education system that tells kids that school buses are yellow. All the ones I’ve ever seen are orange.

“All yellow buses go to my school, right?”

I drove bus 13-90 then 9-95 then 17-96 then 6-01 and then interestingly enough, I forget the several after that.

Idaho huh?

Great way to avoid school

I always hated that they changed the start of the school yr from the day after Labor Day to August.

Well, I didn’t mean to go to Idaho, but I didn’t want to go to school

That doesn’t narrow the field a whole lot, Hammie. I imagine all of your school’s buses are yellow.

I want to see that strip!

Only on the yellow one, huh? That really narrows the choices, Hammie.
