Karrie and her friend Katie came out yesterday and summer-ized my house. They put screens in the storm doors, put up the flag pole, brought the deck chairs up from the basement, uncovered and set up the fountain and hooked up a full propane tank to the grill. So I'm set for the summer.
Katie also brought a $5 piece of art that I asked for. My friend Elena blogged that she bought a piece of art that she purchased from an old cigarette machine at the Chicago Cultural Center, so out of curiosity I found them on the internet and saw that Kishwaukee College has one of the machines the sells this art. Kishwaukee College is in Malta which is near DeKalb, near Katie and Karrie, so Katie volunteered to go buy a piece of art for me and they delivered it yesterday . So here is the artist's statement on the back and the actual piece of art.

The piece is a block of wood 2"x3"x3/4" painted with a couple of brushstrokes of black, and in red an eye and part of a nose and lips. The art must be able to fit in a box that is the size of a pack of cigarettes. The artist gets $2.50 for each piece sold and must supply at least 50 pieces to the vendor.
