The work-in-progress that is my car continues. This afternoon, we chiseled off the ice so I could get inside, where I fired up the heater and the radio and covered the dashboard with illustrations from the old Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings cartoon:
The paint is kind of shiny, so I may have to get some velcro and a dark-colored cloth of some sort to cover the rainbow on really sunny days, but that shouldn’t be too difficult.
The moon and stars are to the left of the steering wheel. The other stuff is all over the passenger’s-side dashboard. I think the whole thing turned out really cute.
When I finished with my Simon drawings, I touched up the peace signs I’d put on the steering wheel a few weeks ago:
There wasn’t much else to do today. This is what our yard looks like right now:
The streets supposedly aren’t too bad at this point, so we’re going to check out the home and garden show over at the fairgrounds … because if there’s one thing I need, it’s a few more crazy ideas for the garden, don’t you think? 😉
