A friend sent me this short video of the San Diego zoo's polar bears enjoying a "white Christmas" . It's the little things or in this case, 26 tons of snow that really make a bear's day. Hopefully it can become a zoo tradition.
The Bay Area Model's Guild holds model marathons during the year and they are so much fun. It is six hours of usually 10 models at a time in poses ranging from 1- 2 min gestures , 5 & 10 min, 20 min and one long pose (for people who actually bring paints) and is currently $40 for the whole day. The model's are really good, very professional and range in body types which I love. Additionally, if you like quick poses, usually by the end of the day the 1-2 minute poses usually end up being a group effort ranging from quirky fun to lovely lyrical compositions (incentive to nail those quick sketch skills during the rest of the year!)
