The ever-changing She-Wolf  This is the she-wolf statue that Lynn brought back for me from Rome. Unbeknown to either of us, it apparently changes color like a Generra t-shirt in the dryer. With some unscientific experimentation, I believe it gets pinker when the air is very humid. No matter what, it's ridiculous and fantastic. Best... souvenir... ever!

Finding location...

If it is indeed the humidity that makes the she-wolf turn colors - I suspect it will be imploding soon. Last night I had to run the windshield wipers on my car because the moisture in the air was actually condensing on my windshield.

- There is an even BETTER version of the She-wolf at the Louvre. It has a neck stand. I'll have to dig through my pictures and see if I can find it.
