Today's field trip is courtesy of an e-mail that's being passed around showing the absolutely amazing body painting work of Guido Daniele. I'm just in awe of his abilities to paint hands to resemble various animals.

In addition, I wanted to mention that Brenda Novak's yearly auction for diabetes research is now in full swing, and there are many fabulous items available. This year, I'm donating all the profits I would have seen from a master class at Writer University, which will be held (I believe) in January 2009. Since Mr. Katie used to have diabetes, I'm a big supporter of Brenda's auction. Which reminds me I need to go browse some of the offerings again...
