Having fun at the Albuquerque Sunport

In case you have trouble reading my handwriting...

Reasons the Albuquerque Airport is Awesome: 

1. It's a SUNport, not an airport.
2. It has a bi-plane from 1914 (almost 100 years old!).
3. There are portraits memorializing drug- and bomb-sniffing dogs (wearing police badges!) mounted on the wall.
4. It was free WiFi.
5. There's art (paintings, sculptures, ceramics) everywhere, including 20 giant wooden ceiling beams across the main entry hall, each painted (and carved) with a different animal or design.
6. The lines are practically non-existent.
7. It's really colorful (like most of New Mexico).

With all the heft of a grizzly bear

As you may or may not know, I seem to have ended up in Fort Sumner, New Mexico (population: 1,031). I have work to fill my days (and running, and cycling...), but I also have a lot of free time. So I decided to fill it with some exercises from The Daily Create, which is part of a free, online digital media course I stumbled upon.

Instead of doing today's create, I chose a recent one I found more intriguing: Celebrate the 600th Daily Create by expressing "600" in a drawing that doesn't use numbers.

 Some ideas to illustrate 600 as...

• ...an age (think: Methuselah)
• ...a crowd of people/insects/deer
• ...discrete feathers, or frogs, or pieces of popcorn (popped v. unpopped kernels, by volume, could be interesting)
• ....a weight. Hmmm, what weighs 600 lbs?

A grizzly bear!

He's kind of nervous about getting weighed at the doctor's office, for obvious reasons.

And of course, a grizzle bear would have a driver's license. I used "600" in here but...who cares?
