I had SUCH a wonderful 4th of July yesterday, and a much needed break from work.  Now I feel energized enough to continue preparing for the Palm Loft show in August, I have a lot to do! 

"Dopey" seemed like a name that fit for this guy.  He was pretty expressionless and was always the last to get at the food I was throwing.
