And Back Home

There’s a lot of excitement today. Elmo’s friends got out maps and pencils, to see where Boston is. Blue Bunny spoke about his adventures there a few years ago. Penguin still has questions about DC. He’s wondering if Elmo ever got a chance to show his Rumsfeld doll the Pentagon. I told him that we probably would have heard about it by now if he had.

But they did enjoy clanging around in the Capitol Building’s elevators yesterday. Elmo called and said there was a lot of excitement, with people sitting on the floor and cops running around everything. Almost like back in his hometown.

Some Elmo.

It’s been awhile, now, since Elmo left. I know we’re all waiting with bated breath for him to be in touch.

But! What I have found is a home movie shot by ‘the Duck’ while Elmo was leaving. You’ll have to excuse the jerkiness. He hasn’t used a video camera before, so it was a surprise to me to find it. He says that there’s too many cameras around anyway.

Anyhow, these last views of Elmo will have to hold us, I guess, while we await word from, or about, him. He looks so brave in this clip. So touching.
