Life List: Mt. Pleasant Robot

IMAG0129

This past spring I read about the Mt. Pleasant Robot and I was intrigued.  This guys dresses up in a homemade robot costume and wanders around town supposedly to spread cheer.

All summer I watched for him every time we were out around town.  I was determined to get my picture with him and even included my mission on my Life List.  I figured it was just a matter of time before I finally found the guy.

All summer went by and I didn't have one single sighting of the Mt. Pleasant Robot.

I was disappointed as fall came knowing that he would likely disappear for good.  I decided to write it off as something I just wouldn't be able to cross of my Life List. 

At least I tried to find him.

Then this Saturday I was downtown with my friends for a Ladies Night Out event and we spotted him!  The Mt. Pleasant Robot was up ahead with a group on women that were asking him interrogating questions.  I don't think he was answering them.

My friends didn't know what to think when I whipped out my phone in excitement and insisted they take my picture with the robot.  Being the good friends they are, they still took the picture even if they thought I was a little off my rocker.

So I marched right up to the group and interrupted, "May I please get a picture with you."  It was clear by the robots body language that he was eager to accept a photo opportunity.

So I did it, I got my picture with the Mt. Pleasant Robot.

I am so amused by the person who does this and I am filled with questions about who and why.  Even having had the chance I am glad I didn't ask any further questions than my request for a photo.

Some things are more fun when left a mystery. 

Thank you Mt. Pleasant Robot.
