All Aboard the Meme Express – Saturday, November 22, 2008
November 22nd is “Go for a Ride Day” in the United States (and perhaps elsewhere). Although the origins of this occasion are unknown, this holiday does present some creative options for adventurous individuals.
Here’s a song to get you started.

Today, the Meme Express prompt is “Go for a Ride.”
What will you ride today?
A bicycle? A horse? A motorcycle? A car?
A snowmobile? A go-cart? A sleigh? A scooter?
A camel? A motorboat? An elephant? A tricycle?
A segway? An elevator? A donkey? An escalator?
A skateboard? A golf cart? A helicopter?
If you could ride anything, what would it be?
Where would you go?
Perhaps this concept will inspire you to create a drawing, a poem, a short story, or a journal entry. Then return here to leave a comment with your link. (Be sure to include a link to the Meme Express. Grab our train graphic from the sidebar for your link, if you want.)
