I love color. Not only does it brighten up my day (literally), but it also helps me see the world through an artist’s eye.
This weekend I spent a few hours watching Foster’s House for Imaginary Friends on the Cartoon Network.

I’d say 55-60 if you’re really good. And that’s no joke. I experienced it today for about nine miles back to our hotel from Prospector Square near downtown Park City.
And can I just add it doesn’t help when the bus driver keeps yelling, ‘don’t lean on my doors!’ when we’re trying to get out/in at [...]
