One morning we were travelling from our home to our office and noticed that we had an unexpected passenger which was hitching a ride with us. It was a green grasshopper. I took these pictures as we were driving. We named it Hopalong, "the uneasy rider". It clung on the outside windshield through out the 23 mile 45 minute drive. It must have been a harrowing experience for it because we went through highways and byways at high speeds, sharp turns , bumps and gusting winds. Lo and behold when we parked in front of the office it was still on the windshield. Much to our amazement it was still on the windshield when we made same return trip home 8 hours later. When we parked in our driveway Hopalong jumped off the windshield on to the grass, home at last.......
