Today I had a very special visit while I was painting from two girls from Batavia, Illinois. Visiting family in Ithaca for the summer, they came down to the park after seeing the article about repainting the carousel. Payton Jewell, below, was one of the first kids to ride our newly painted horse, which was put back on the carousel this morning. After their ride, Payton, Kaya, and their mother came over to see me. They could not have been sweeter! They were so polite, careful around the horse I was working on, and very excited about the painting. It's wonderful to see happy kids! -Julia
