Our painting appointment is at noon, so we occupy the morning
getting our pictures together. Then it's off to see Angie.
We bring our iPads, loaded with animal pictures.

We connect with Emma and Shannon our painters. Emma says "You
want me to do what to your breast?"

We show them our pictures, and discuss the mural. They are
impressed at how organized we are. There is some
negotiation over price, but after a a few quick text messages
with Troy, our painter from previous years, the contract is made.

And so the painting begins

be needing the rest of the day. Naked is cool!

It takes us over 4 hours to walk the 5 blocks bewteen the two Wylands
Galleries on Duval. This is where we'll watch the people exiting
from the Mascaraed March. Two of us are a bit gimpy, so we
elected not to walk the parade route.
