earth week

I noticed this vignette at the bus stop this morning, and had to snap a quick photo -- just a little more on my "green" theme.

Saturday morning bright and early I'm heading up to Vancouver BC for some business meetings and a chance to spend a little time with my youngest brother and SIL and their brood of 4. Their 8-year-old daughter is a big crafting nut, and I always wish she lived closer! I'm hoping to have a few spare minutes to check out the local yarn scene...

Have fun in Vancouver, Julie. I love that city.
