Bon Voyage, Little Buddies...


The Bucky Buddies are at this moment preparing for their voyage to their new homes with 60 very lucky children at a local childrens hospital. If all goes according to planned, they will make the trip on Wednesday. It has been a long journey for them and I am sure they are ready to move on with the next stage in their lives. All have been bedecked with ribbons and Bucky Buddy tags - and in fact one has already been delivered to Bucky himself.

On the heels of yesterday's post, timing seems odd for this. As I said, everyone does what they can. I need to add that this is NOT something that we really "could" do, it took time, lots of discussing options, many visits to local office stores, craft stores and department stores for supplies, and some space taken up while they hung out waiting for their pending "adoptions". So we couldn't really do it, we couldn't afford it for the most part, other corners needed to be cut here and there. All that aside, we did do it. We are using the Bucky Buddies as ambassadors on behalf of Bucky. Sometimes you need just a little help to spread the word....and if we had it to do over again - would we? Yep! It might not happen often, but we would sure do it again.
