Feeling the heat

Since it is only supposed to get up to 90 degrees today in the Duke City, I'm thinking I'll take some of these encaustic pieces over the The Wooden Cow Gallery.  I have a couple of stops to make on the way and one may take some time.  To avoid a puddle of melted wax and blank plywood panels in my car by the time I'm done, I think I'll try putting them in a cooler full of ice.  Not getting them wet, mind you, but just setting them in there on top of some ice in baggies.  Separated by a towel or something.  Well, famous last words have always been "hey, let's try this", so I'm posting fond portraits of these, my babies, who I will remember well if something goes awry.
