ROAD WARRIOR
I had worked on this drawing for a couple of days and was pretty happy with it. I was picking up a large framed watercolor at the framers and put this drawing (which was done on a watercolor block) on the roof of my car, while I was loading the framed watercolor. Halfway home, about 12 miles up the highway, I realized what I had done. I pulled over and checked out the inside of my SUV, just to make sure. It wasn't there, and I felt really stupid. When I got home, I called the art gallery that represents me, and Anna, (one of the owners) luckily was still there. She jumped in her car and went to the frame shop, two blocks away, and saw nothing on the road. She drove to Main Street, retracing my drive home and drove about a mile. She saw a flicker of blue off in the distance, which turned out to be the outside cover of the drawing's cover. It was, and the drawing was lying a couple of lanes over. Way to go Anna!!! It was still intact and I was able to restore it. Hence the name "Road Warrior".
