Clapping Lobsters and Winos

Mom & I took the girls downtown last night for the Art Car Preview Show. It was amazing! This car made me think of Olive Garden. How about you?

This was Skye's favorite...



Yes, those are saddles in the back of the bus. The owner wasn't around, so I'm not sure if they were mechanical or not. I'm guessing they are.



This was my favorite. Clevery name "Shattered Vanity", it was covered in mirrors. When I had my gallbladder surgery, this car was in the parking lot of the surgery center. It was my first encounter with an art car. (I know my pictures aren't great. It was a little difficult maneuvering the stroller through the crowds. I had to take what I could get.)



The Sock Monkey car came with its own puppeteer...


I wasn't quite sure if this was supposed to be paint or wax. It looks like wax, but I'm pretty sure those are paint cans pouring on the paint.


The cat hearse...


This is the epitome of an art car...


We also saw a car covered in clapping lobsters, a mermaid van with a live (drunken) mermaid, and a jeep that shot fire 50 ft. in the air (which freaked Reiley out and we moved quickly away from that one). It was a great show!
