Yes, it's true! Both the ceiling and the walls of the "cave" in the Johnson Meeting Room were found to be covered with drawings....created by the kids who stopped in for a "Cave-in" at the Library. We gathered here on Wednesday afternoon, saw some slides of real cave paintings, and then got busy decorating our own "cave". Kids used charcoal made from real willow twigs, pastels, and paint we mixed up from clay that Miss Sarah found in a pile of dirt on her road... :-)

| Here's a proud cave-artist! |
 |
| Cave-drawing can make a mess of your hands! |
 |
| A capacity crowd is mesmerized by Norman's performance... |
