Sometimes Life Lets You Down.

Hello friends. We are currently in part II of the hobo project and I just wanted to take some time to reflect on the journey. There was a long period between part I of the project and part II, with many days of discouragement in between. I entered part II with the mind set of patience. I cannot expect results right away and the possibility never getting a result. That is life. You have to be patient and be willing to be discouraged. It's that same feeling you got when awaiting David Hasselhoff's ninth album, Jump In My Car. You go to the record store, buy the album at midnight, listen to the cd, and think to yourself, "What happened to the magic David?" You have to learn to to live through the adversity. I think we have all heard the phrase when life hands you lemons, make lemonade. Well I have my own take on the saying. I hope it catches on.

When life hands you hobos, make hobo stew.

I think I'm gonna make bumper stickers so let em know if you are intrested in one.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that the hobo stew is coming along. It takes a long time to cook, but its delicious and well worth the wait.

Finally!

Sorry it has been so long since my last post. I just couldn't face having to write in the blog reporting a failed mission. The good news is my friends is that I do not have to report a failed mission. I have been diligent in checking the garage everyday for the status of the food with dissapointment until today. This afternoon I ventured out to the garage like I do everyday with no hope of my hobo returning, and today the food was gone! The hobo has returned and I could not be happier, and at the same time a little scared again. So, it is on with part two of the hobo project. I am hoping that this time there will not be such a gap in time. So on we are with the project!

THE HOBO PROJECT PART II: HOBO COMMUNICATION

step 1- We are once again baiting the hobo with some food. Today I have chosen some wendy's chili I never got around to eating


and...

An easy open can of chunky chicken noodle soup.



step 2- A piece of paper and a marker simply asking the hobo to check which food item he prefers.



Step 3- Place step 1 and step 2 in the garage and once again wait to see if he takes it.



Upon completion of part II of the hobo project we will move on to part III. I gotta warn you, part three will be awesome!
