The next day is Saturday. It’s a good day for a special pink outfit, because we’re off to see a pink elephant! We head back out on Interstate 40 bright and early.

“I’m sure y’all are going to notice that I get two stops,” I say. “It’s only fair, because I planned the trip. It was a lot of work, even though Lucy helped. Pretty please keep your eyes open for a big sign for the Pink Elephant roadside attraction.”

“It’s right there!” Lucy shouts. “We need to take the next exit.”

I spy a giant pink elephant trunk sticking up, so I shout, “I see the elephant!”

Lucy and I are so excited! We can hardly wait for the van to stop. When we pull into the parking lot beside it, I realize that the elephant is as big as a house. It’s painted the color of bubble gum. Since the elephant is so tall and I’m so short, when I try to take a selfie I only get my face and the elephant’s knees.

“Please, T.J., take my picture!” I beg.

“I want to be in the picture!” Lucy adds.

T.J. snaps our picture, and then we take a look at it. I’m glad I have on pink today, because I look mighty nice standing by that big pink elephant!
