A Trip With The Mayor

The Mayor finally got the right key to get into the Tower at D.W. Field Park.  We took our swords which we had made out cardboard tubes taken out of two rolls of Christmas wrapping paper.  We raced up to the top of the Tower.  I turned and said, “Ha!  Nobody can beat me to the top of the Tower!  On gaurd!” 

The Mayor and I duked it out for a few minutes, exchanging the fighting slurs we’d heard the great pirates of the silver screen say in their epic Hollywood sword fighting scenes.  We fought and fought until finally the mayors sword bent. 

After our battle, the Mayor removed a plastic baggy which contained graham crackers and he and I ate them, then layed down to take a nap… 

I was asleep all of maybe ten minutes when I was awoken by the sound of the Mayor chanting in his sleep.  “Buwuh haha buwuh huh huh!  Buwuh haha buwuh huh huh!  Buwuh haha buwuh huh huh!  Buwuh haha buwuh huh huh!”

The Tower began to shake and a vapor began to swarm into the Tower.  It smelled like an early morning summer garden.  In the blink of an eye the Mayor and I were completely engulfed in the sweet vapor.

“Buwuh haha buwuh huh huh!  Buwuh haha buwuh huh huh!  Buwuh haha buwuh huh huh!  Buwuh haha buwuh huh huh!” the mayor continued.

Suddenly, I could feel the Tower begin to rumble and lift off from the ground!  The Mayor woke up and hugged his knees close to his chest.

We were flying.  But it wasn’t like the flight over in the Mayor’s saucer.  We were zooming through a tunnel of streaming light!  I asked the Mayor, “What was in those graham crackers?” to which he replied, “Nabisco.”

The moment the Mayor said “Nabisco” the Tower stopped and hovered.  We got up and walked to the opening to look outside… 

The Mayor quietly let out a sigh.  “Huh” he said “It’s just as I remember it.”

“Wow!” I said.  We’ve travelled through time!

“I know” said the Mayor “far out, man!”
