Today the Help Desk got into the Mardis Gras spirit & built our float!! Woo hoo for fun & weirdness!! We decided to use our float as our theme for our row...and also; Woo hoo for Do more with less!!
Being that we are the help desk team we decided to go with none other than those 4 guys from Liverpool & use the song Help by the Beatles! In going with that song, we made our very own hippie bus, complete with The Mayor at the helm!! We had a blasty blast putting this thing together. We had a casualty along the way.. Dory was hopscotching & hopscotched her Iphone right into a bucket of paint! Our very chivalrous Donavon fished it out with his hands!! What a guy :)
At any rate, we had a lot of fun bonding & putting this together, stop by our row to check out the bus!!
