A New Medium for Zorah's Art

RV tables are shaky, and if you rock them too much, the bases for the removal legs can easily. So lately we replaced the table that came with our RV to a folding card table from Wal-Mart.

For some reason, this new table has boosted Zorah's already high interest in drawing. Anyway, this morning while I was doing email, she found the chopstick which I use sometimes to light our oven. Anyway, she started dragging it across the calendar taped to the fridge and discovered that she could write with it! When she pointed it out to me, I told her that people had been using charcoal to draw for thousands of years, even in early cave paintings. She really liked that idea and came to me a while later with this:

Unfortunately, since it was the end of the chopstick charcoal, the drawing itself was quite faint, and it got rumpled. I'm afraid to put it through the scanner. It's a palm tree on a desert island, with the sun shining down.
