Flat Stanley

Childhood friend Katherine Kennedy contacted me recently, as one of her few California friends, to ask if I could take a couple of photos of "Flat Stanley" for one of her children's class reading projects. Flay Stanley got delayed in the mail, but as KK's youngest got an extra snow day before turning in the project, Flat Stanley was scanned and e-mailed to me and I managed to snap a few quick picks from the car on the way into work from the dentist's office. I had hoped to make a big photo shoot production for Flat Stanley, and stage scenes across San Francisco, but I think these quick shots cover Stanley and San Francisco quite nicely. And even though it was brief, it was fun.

Flat Stanley visits San Francisco - 02 . Flat Stanley visits San Francisco - 04

Flat Stanley visits San Francisco - 06 . Flat Stanley visits San Francisco - 10

Flat Stanley visits San Francisco - 12 . Flat Stanley visits San Francisco - 19

At the cable car turnaround, one kid called out, "Hey! That looks like Flat Stanley!" which completely cracked me up. Although I can't think of "Flat Stanley" without thinking of the American Dad character "Bad Larry."
