Button, Button. Who's got the Button? (Part IV)

Hearken ye... 


to the middle of the tale from the Button Pile!

(You can find the first bit here, if you need to catch up.)

Alas!

Woe!

 The Romans languished!

So, everyone stopped fighting and decided to have a luau!

All aboard!
They jumped on a boat....

Splish! Splash!


and sailed....


Land Ho!

to an island.

They had great fun!

Giddyup!

They rode on sea horses....

CLANK!

played horseshoes...


FORE!

and played golf!

Everybody Hula!

Everyone thought it was Paradise!

Just then,

WHO?

a wise owl flew up.... 

BLAST OFF!

in a space ship!

Everyone went...

WELCOME!

to visit the Man on the Moon.

He showed them all the sights!

They went to a lunar casino...
 
Deal!

and played Poker...

Round and round she goes!

Roulette...

Check!

Checkmate!

Chess...

Did someone cheat?

and Tic Tac Toe.

Cha-ching!

Everyone won!


Hola!

Balboa came by...
 
Woof!

with his atomic Scottie dog...

Add horrendous sound effect here.
 
to play a bagpipe solo for the group. 

Tick Tock!

He announced that it was time....

There's no business...
to go to the theater....

for his favorite play...

To be or not to be!

Madame Bovary.

TO BE CONTINUED!

 For the record, my favorite buttons of the whole lot are in this part of the story--the roulette wheel, the clock, the space ship and the atomic symbol.

I will not want this button saga to end, but I'm sure it must. So this is the greatest assortment of buttons I've seen and your mind is an amazing (and scary) thing my friend. This was laugh out loud funny....again! My favorite buttons from this episode are the seahorse and the drama masks!

hugs,
Linda
