Postcards from a field trip? Not plausible, though it sounds like a good poem title. Also not plausible in today's Hi and Lois is the way the background colors switch places. Really. No joke.
And that hedge — it's coming closer! Quick! Run!

Beware the Blob!
I particularly like the way the bus is labeled for clarity.
And the background has so many issues (changing colors, buses driving away across what was formerly grass, the wobbly terrain of the "road", etc.) it makes my head hurt.
Elaine, if they do a remake, this hedge should audition.
Rob, I suppose everything in this scene should have been labeled for clarity.
I'm particularly worried that the "bus" seems to be moving away at high speed--so fast, in fact that it's left the ground. Seems terribly unsafe. Of course, those storm clouds moved in rather suddenly, so maybe the driver is trying to get everyone home before all heck breaks loose.
What with the hedge, I didn't even notice the clouds! Or the runaway bus. Thanks, J-D, for pointing out more of this strip's strangeness.
I was the type of kid who would have sent a postcard from a field trip . . .
The bus is weird in so many ways.
Whats with the NRBQ ???
Someone's brand loyalty, I suppose, as with the University of Connecticut shirts that sometimes show up in the strip.
(Johnny's question concerns the May 8th strip.)
