How to park

Have you ever had that thing where you drive to the supermarket or the shopping mall, park your car in a bay, get out, lock it and look around for some sort of sign or landmark by which to remember quickly and easily the location of said car?

It always seems like such a good idea until you finish shopping, only to return to the scene of the parking and find out that someone or something has moved the landmark or painted over the sign that says “MY CAR IS HERE!”

Well I’m like that with my little yellow bike.

    Have to admit that the little yellow bike stands out right there. i like what you did with it. Turned the shadowbox on its side and the bike is gone….

      It does. It says more about me… I mean the character… than it does anything else.

    Nice twist at the end! I’m currently developing a ‘Little Yellow Bike Finder App’, which may be of use to you…

    A very sunny day, in combination with moving landmarks, makes for a very tricky prospect indeed! Sweet. 🙂
