It never gets old seeing the beautiful colors come alive underneath 100 years of grime, smoke, and aged linseed oil. Magically seeing what the artist intended for it to look like. This is just a portion of the painting, and it’s easy to see where we’ve cleaned. We have a long way to go with it yet.

In my city there is one cybertruck and one DIY parody of a cybertruck and the parody truck has become a local celebrity. Meanwhile, I always wish I had some rotten eggs to throw at the tesla whenever I see it.

Exciting news! We’re thrilled to announce that tapir Yuna gave birth to a rare and endangered Malayan tapir calf Sunday night. The newborn, covered in distinctive white spots and stripes resembling a fuzzy walking watermelon, is only the second tapir born in our 120-year history.
