As often happens, I had no idea what I was going to do for this bag. My doodles of Boba Fett went no where. I was momentarily lost... and then.... without warning.... Ackbar popped into my head. It was 11:30. I scribbled quickly, and stopped inking at his word balloon. I left the others in pencil till the morning. Then with little time before my camper was out the door, I finished the other word balloons, snapped a couple of pictures on my phone, and then it was gone. Off to camp.
What you don't see is Ackbar continues talking on the other side saying "Hey, Come Back!", continuing to rhyme with his earlier dialogue. I had intended the to fill the back-side with Ackbar comments, but missed the opportunity. Another day perhaps. Another bag.
I saw some pretty funny Ackbar iterations on the web: A chalkboard Ackbar at a coffee shop saying "It's a Frapp!" Another with the Admiral standing in front of a map saying.... obviously.. "It's a map!"
It's endless fun!

In years past, most of the bags were kept by the camp staff. But, so far this year, the boys have been bringing them home to keep for themselves.
Some of the bags turn out fairly decent. And others, perhaps, not as successful or artistically satisfying. But, in the end, it's all for fun - theirs... and mine.
