I inadvertently gave a ride to this the other day.
I was cruising with some classical music on, because I’m super cool like that, I looked up to the rear view mirror* and WHOA. Someone was not invited! We call this “esperaza” in Spanish, which translates directly to “hope”.
I know it’s a grasshopper in plain English, but it’s the beginning of the year. There’s a lot of things we’ll be working for and looking forward to and just for one day, I don’t care about technical translations: I gave a ride to a little “hope” and it was wonderfully symbolic.
*(the rear view mirror inside my car, this picture was taken after I negotiated with the friend. The negotiation included some coaxing using a sun protector and a lot of soothing words.)

Is your car pink? Looks like it from picture. Pretty cool having Hope in for a ride. Happy New Year.
It’s perly white, a pink car would be so cool
Hope is a great thing to have at the beggining of the year and this friends are so freaking cool. I observed it’s wings for as long as I could
Awww… what a nice story to kick off 2012! “Hope” is pretty darn cute!
Their wings are AMAZING! I never get tired of having encounters with cool insects.
I love the pic and your clever take on theme.
