Not in Kansas Anymore

The inaugural ride I felt like Dorothy
My lovely elevator operator

Suddenly, I was transported to Oz

Clicking my heels.
There's no place like home...

There's no place like home.

Perfect! You chose the perfect shoes for the inaugural ride!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I loved the ribbon cutting ceremony in the last post!!! So smart to put a phone in there in case the elevator gets stuck somehow...not that it would, though!

Robin said...

So how was sleeping in your own bed again?

Sunshine said...

Jake said...

I want the shoes and the elevator and your haircut for Christmas!

Do you have see through plastic on the elevator doors? Do you need a project? No?

My parents had an elevator in their Hawaii house (I can say that here cause you won't judge me) and they had a mural guy paint the shaft so there was stuff to look at on the ride. You could bedazzle it. Or put pictures of me.
