Joyce hefted the painting, and held it up against the brilliant sunlight pouring in through the gallery's windows.

It was a large bright oil painting of the main street of Sunnydale, done with lots of broad strokes and vibrant colours depicting laughing people and friendly buildings under a clear summer's sky.

Joyce found herself smiling back at it.

Just what I need after LA, she thought.

After LA, after Hank, and after the clouds.

A cheerful painting of their new home.

Just the thing to mark a new start; to celebrate her new life.

"Carol?  How much is this one?"
