 	SCENE 1 	Big Bird mopes that there's nothing to do since a lot of the kids are in school and there's nobody to play with. Maria encourages him to play using his imagination before she heads to the supermarket. Joined by Barkley, Big Bird imagines riding his horse Shane and encounters desert winds, a rattlesnake, a thunderstorm and wolves (with the appropriate sound effects playing). They seek shelter in a cave near the stoop, where Maria had encountered them before and asks why Big Bird hasn't tried playing anything yet.
