For the Love of Theatre

Foo loves to be the center of attention and so loved his time spent on the stage in the past that he just LOVED this stage, especially because it clearly loved him back...

Hoot-e-Nanny

This wise old owl at the Orange Show said it's better to be silent and listen than brashly talkative. Foo's not sure he's all that ready to be wise, but he'll take that into consideration.

Foo Prince

Foo has heard that if you kiss a frog he will turn into a prince. And this frog was more than ready to pucker up for Foo. But since he already considers himself a prince, Foo decided he needs to pucker up and let the ladies come to him.

Foo Precautions

Although Foo isn't typically one to think first and act later, the walls at the Orange Show are very persistent. This one was very worried about Foo's safety, so he took extra care climbing down the narrow stairways from the rooftops.

Rainbow Hat

Just like the Sorting Hat in Harry Potter, Foo found this rainbow hat to have the power to sort everyone that goes under it into their proper color at the Orange Show. Obviously, Foo got placed into the house of Red.

It's Time!

Just like the wall says, it's time for orange! And apparently that time is at 3 p.m. Note to Foo, go orange at 3. Check!

Panned Piper of Orange

Foo turned a corner at the Orange Show and heard a sweet piping tune, only to find this little boy playing a panpipe and making Foo dance to the music! At least the piper wasn't trying to drive him out like a rat...

Kiss and Tell

When Foo found this wishing well at the Orange Show, love was in the air with all the hearts on the walls. He tossed in a coin and made a wish. He hopes they come true! But, shhh, he can't tell.

Weather Birds Fly

Foo was glad to run into these weather birds at the Orange Show. They were very helpful in letting him know that the rain would, indeed, hold off long enough for him to finish his visit.

Pro-Orange Propoganda

Foo has always been a fan of citrus fruit, so he loved the fact that the walls at the Orange Show constantly proclaimed their love as well!
Constant reenforcement of the love of going strong and being orange gave Foo such a sense of energetic pride that he even considered changing his color to that bright and brilliant hue.

After all the signs all over the place, Foo happily jumped on the orange bandwagon--or bizzare contraption he though was the bandwagon--and proudly supported the color and the fruit. He loves them both!

Giving Cattitude

Foo tries to make friends wherever he goes, but this lion at the orange show wouldn't have anything to do with him. Apparently his poop didn't stink, and he didn't like to be touched since he cringe when Foo got close. Or maybe he was just playing his part in The Wizard of Oz and he was really a coward...

Umbrella Tree

Since it had been cloudy and close to rain since Foo began his journey this day, he finally broke down and decided he needed an umbrella. Too bad this one was bigger than the car and couldn't be taken home with him.

Orange You Glad?

Since moving to Houston, Foo had been told time and time again to go visit The Orange Show, and finally he had a chance to do it
It looked like a whole lotta craze and not nearly enough oranges, but Foo was super excited to take a look all the same.

Leaning Tower of Cars

Foo loved finding this pillar dedicated to Houston, the Art Car Capital of the World. Every year, art cars parade the streets in a fabulous array of awesomeness (as evidenced by the flame at the top), which reminds him... he needs to head back to that museum to see all the new lovelies on display.

Bright Idea

When Foo gets ideas, there's no measly light bulb that goes on over his head. Instead is a bright, bursting rocket flare of amazing proportions. At last, after all these years, it was captured on film.
