Tea Break



It's a tea break for me. I am sitting outside enjoying the last days of Summer. The cicada's are buzzing so loudly around me that I swear my ears are ringing. I've been at my computer most of the day, working out some new prints for Fall. I'm very indecisive so naturally, this has taken the entire day. 


It has been a strange and sad couple of days here in Canada. Yesterday, we lost a great man,  Jack Layton, leader of the NDP party, the official opposition in our parliamentary system. He was a determined advocate for the environment and many marginalized groups and a shining light in our political system. Charismatic leaders like him do not come along very often, it is a great loss.
