The Stray Stroller

Forget the Stray Shopping Carts (which by the way is the best book and most fun ever). Today, I saw a stray stroller. This stroller was damaged and sitting alongside the road. A stray stroller is much more scarce than the stray shopping cart. I don't think we will find enough of them to make a book.

Is it bad that I secretly hope to find more?

I had a stray stroller parked in front of my house over the weekend. It was there for about 20 minutes, loaded up with shopping bags, and I saw no one around. I kept monitoring the progress of it and saying to the husband, "there is a stroller parked in front of our house..." Finally, a family came to claim it.

When I saw the title of the post, I was afraid you were referring to shopping carts as strollers again ;) http://queenbisme.blogspot.com/2008/06/22-ways-that-kim-has-become-sydneys-mom.html

I feel sorta sad for the stroller that's been left behind. It is kinda like the Velveteen Rabbit...

maybe you could create the book of 'random stuff left behind'.

I had never heard of this Stray Shopping Cart Project....Awesome! I inadvertently clicked on the amazon.com link for purchasing it....and other hilarious concept books booked up in the "people who bought this also bought:" link!

"50 Sad Chairs"--pics of stray chairs!
and
"Milk Eggs Vodka: Grocery lists lost and found"

Agree with Andrea -- there is something inherently sad about that broken abandoned stroller . . . love your new headshot btw if I didn't already tell you, and happy new year!

At least who ever left the stroller took the baby.

it is probably the person house close by. That is how my neighbor stores theirs.

...And my other neighbor jacked a shopping cart as a stroller. No joke. I am so embarrassed to live nearby.

Maybe grandma got tired of pushing and thought she would just carry him for a while
