Habby Bear

Preparations 2013

You know the travelocity gnome?  Well, we have Hab Bear.


Habby takes in the view
Hockey reigns supreme in our neck of the woods.  Jeff is a Toronto Maple Leafs fan while his buddy John (as in crew extraordinaire from a previous post) is a Montreal Canadiens (Habs) fan....  which, if you follow hockey at all, you're aware would lead to an inevitable spirited rivalry.

Habby's new car
As a boat warming gift, John presented Jeff with "Hab Bear", a little stuffed animal dressed in a Hab uniform.  Poor little Habby was quickly strapped to the flag pole and stayed there for months. Since then Habby has enjoyed a thrilling career as our travel mascot.  Jeff has made it his mission to photograph the good boating life through Habby's eyes, (and somehow convince complete strangers to participate) and then send the pics home to John.  That little Bear has seen his share of action:
Habby speaks the truth
Habby finds romance
Habby takes a helicopter ride
Habby gets arrested
Whoo-hoo. Habby goes seadooing
Habby crashes a tailgating party

Habby goes to jail

Habby takes in an NHL game

Habbie, you be good, behave yourself and remember your manors. Wear your life jacket at all times. Take good care of Susie and Jeffie. Have fun. Daddy loves you. Xox. :-)

Dear Daddy, How could you leave me with "these" people. I question their judgement and my safety is seriously in question. They even wear Leaf's jersey's sometimes. Geez.
I will, though, heed your directions and try my best to protect these Leaf fans and steer them in the right direction. The Habs direction.
With love,
Your prodigy,
Habby Bear
PS I have skinny legs and no ass too
