Memories.

Fascinating phenomenon: The older I get, the fewer memories I have! And like many of us, the fondest memories are often of vacations. I vaguely remember having a vacation. But oh, if my luggage could only talk!

This weekend we're driving to Detroit for a wedding. Vacation? Detroit? Hardly. More like punishment for unrepentant sin. Maybe Mr. Suitcase will have a good time.

While spot on - your illo does not leave me looking forward to my impending road trip with my parents this weekend. I can just see our luggage making a break for it... I'd like to join it to be honest, four hours in a car with my mum reading every billboard along the side of the road? No thanks.

Anyways, fantastic job - I love the style and the composition.

Love this drawing and can share the problem with trying to remember what memories means! It depends on where you are driving to Detroit from; there are lots of cool places on the way to Detroit, like Harbor Springs.

once I looked in my rear view mirror and saw my suitcases skating down the road behind me like hockey pucks. Not much fun for Mr. Suitcase THAT day....

I like this cartoon. It remains me the old cartoons of the New Yorker.
