A child's imagination can be fired by just about anything. Mine certainly was. For instance, a few errant drops of paint on a black vinyl baseboard can look like a face when the lights are low. (I'll leave that story for Season Two.)

This week's Hoytus is about a painting that hung in my family home most of my life. For me, with no travel budget, that painting became my first experience with teleportation.
