Bear About Town
A photographic portfolio of
Wellington the Fashion Plate
|
I started out the first part of
my bearhood here in America like most other young bears. After a time, Paula
found this great store called Build-a-Bear, where kids can go and make their
own lame stuffed bears. I say lame, because none of them can quite measure
up to my sophisticated sauveness. But that's OK, there can only be one
Wellington. Anyway!
Mom... I mean Paula has turned
me into quite the fashion plate. Like this picture here... I think it was
the first time Mom ever dressed me up. Kind of silly looking, and she kept
calling me "Frodo", that Hobbit character in that movie "Lord of the Rings",
but I think she meant "Dobby" from the "Harry Potter" movie. Either way, it
was kind of embarrassing, and I pretty much kept my mouth shut the whole
time and endured the humiliation... Oh yeah, I don't have a mouth. Mom just
about spotted
herself laughing at my expense. But the cool clothes started to get better,
as you can plainly see below. |

Over on the left is me with my
Halloween costume on. I thought it was quite cute, if I do say so myself.
I'm "Count Bearcula", as if you couldn't tell on your own.
And on the right is me with my
superhero costume on. Cousin Janie got that for me. It's really neat,
because when I have my mask on I'm invisible, and nobody can see me. Or
maybe I can't see anyone... either way, somebody is invisible. |

| And here's me, keeping with the
holiday theme, All ready for Thanksgiving. Mom calls me "Captain John Smith"
in this one, but I'm not sure why. |

And this is one of me in my
Christmas outfit. Santa's furry little helper. |

Mom wouldn't let me get a
motorcycle, and she kept saying I looked like "The Fonz". I don't even know
what a Fonz is, so I just refer to myself as "The Welly".
And over here on the right is me
when we were taking a drive through Rocky Mountain National Park. I don't
have any black socks to wear with my sandals like any self-respecting
tourist, but I think I captured the whole tourist thing quite nicely. |

Armstrong. |
