double


Happy Illustration Friday! This week's prompt is "double".

Remember recess at school? I remember jumping rope with those big thick school-provided ropes. "I LOVE COFFEE, I LOVE TEA....", everybody chant!

To this day, I still love to jump rope. I've just recently mastered cross-overs! Then there's those who do double dutch. That, I've never done. Have you? Doesn't it look like fun?

Jump in with me?

Given my coordination, you are better off jumping with the dog. Still, that brings back many memories. For an old grade school past time, it is pretty darn good exercise. Try jump roping for 30 minutes and I'll be you'll burn more calories than most of those ablaster/thighmaster/bowflex machines.

Ooooh, I used to love double-dutch!

And I remember this jump-roping chant:

Cinderella
Dressed in yellow
Went upstairs to kiss a fellow
Made a mistake
Kissed a snake
How many doctors did it take?

Okay, that's just weird!

Put your illustration is fantastic!
