One Gal's Trash: Put A Bird On It

We Portland peeps love the show Portlandia. Well, those of us who like to make fun of ourselves love the show Portlandia. Here's a recent clip that has gained a lot of traction. There are P.A.B.O.I. t-shirts and bumper stickers all over town.

I just found these 1958 activity books in someone's attic. There was a stack of them, all in pristine condition.

Some of the pages have instructions on what color to use. The books were published back in the day when you were never supposed to go outside the lines or (Heaven forbid!) choose your own color palette.

Birds for all seasons.

Now, where did I put my crayons?
