A Different Sort of Eye Candy

I never get tired of forwarded e-mails with cute animal photos. Even if I have already received a particular one, when I open it again it's just as I had never laid eyes on it--laughing, smiling, calling others over to look hoping they will share my enthusiasm. You'd think I was just describing a five year old there. Luckily, I surround myself with others who share this interest. Ha, who do you think sends me the emails?

Anyway, I've compiled a few recent favorites here. No matter what kind of mood I'm in, one look at any of these puts a smile on my face. I hope they'll put one on yours, too.

The first is from a series of animals in funny situations. The second is none other than Logan Shupe Earl. The third I pulled out of a Patagonia catalog, and it now hangs outside my office. And the next two document an unlikely friendship.
