    Sloth High Five: Skoolie Feature Friday

    Today’s Feature Friday – Sloth High Five! The Sloth High Five skoolie, or the “Up” Bus as it’s known, is one of the most easily recognizable-at-a-glance skoolies around thanks to its unique paint job that mimics the house that travels through the sky in Pixar’s “Up”.
