Where would you go?  With changes come possibilities..  I know.
I've been researching properties in Canada. I love the water.  
Living where I am now it's not an option. Prices have gone up in Keswick since the 404 completion, now a shorter drive to the city has made properties prices raise beyond my budget... my long time pal Christine has already informed me of this - so then GO!  
I told Josh- "You're an American- You don't have to stay in Texas! (Sad still the state of Cannabis there, Imo.. people suffering needlessly) GO!! I said! Get on a bus and go.    
He went and is doing amazing in Seattle! Such a talented guy my pal Joshua.  < read about him here!  I will say, our time hanging out has made us life long friends. Another pal Peter - he hated it here in Toronto and always talked about the England.. I said GO!!! WTF are you doing?? lol - He went! he got a job before he even arrived- Frig, I am proud of him. He has friends, shipped his very cool bike over and  when I last saw- On a normal F*&^ Fb page- he was having a wonderful time and happy travelling all over!
 
So, now what? GO!! But where. Halliburton, I've been there my entire life off and on and love it. It's a friendly community with an intimacy you don't get in a big city, I even enjoy and still listen to canoe - the radio station. I never have problems meeting and speaking to new people, it is truly a gift I got from my mom. I've never had a problem making friends, when I want them.  As I get older I'm enjoying a small circle of great friends, wider circle of  good friends.  Still, I can't afford anything on the water...
Then I ventured a little further Turo!! Nova Scotia?  
Then I spied this "Inn"  - it is on my list of places to visit & stay. * these sites find me, btw.
Check this place out: www.fogoislandinn.ca/b/video  I love when WE help each other.
I wonder if I should move a little further.  
I Know what I want.   Peace & WiFi  lol 

I place to look at water, walk my dogs, have some chickens, have friends over for relaxing potluck meals. hee hee  I want to paint. I want to paint about aboriginal plights in this country, the struggles women are having around the world, poverty, child abuse.. an I want to paint  gouache birds & kertmit the frog.  
I'm working on a cartoon now calling it "I'm ashamed", I am...  but I can focus on doing better now that I am educating myself & draw! I want to draw!  

Slip in some travel, Spain, Scotland to see the Cannabus that features Georgia Toons!
Visit with Robert and the ZENkitty crew!  Visit Ivan and his talented wife!
She has already promised to teach me a clay class!  
​The USA is looking mighty appealing at the moment as well. 
Go. 

Where would you Go?

Cannabis is used and celebrated all around the world!
We forget that, with our daily struggles and own battles in Canada with cannabis.
We forget that in the USA - in one state you can grow and in the next you go to jail,  that right there, is criminal.  In other countries it's the same, many still fighting the negative stigma associated with cannabis.

Why are so many  fighting?  They are tired of seeing a war waged against each other.  A failed drug war, used only as an excuse to imprison minorities,  
mostly black - fact. Next hispanic incarcerations  - it is horrendous how humans are being treated over a plant.

It's time to have some fun and at the time create some cannabis bud pride!  
It starts with Scotland.  
I have recently been invited to Scotland & Spain - and it is on my mind.  
I've showed you the 'Cannabus' decorated with my art- and yes, I would like to see it in person and visit with my friend Robert,  who I have e mailed with back and forth over the years, he seems like he is a lot of FUN & I know we already have a few things in common, like our mutual love and appreciation for a plant - and educating others.  
I have drawn a couple of  logos for now for him, Including the ZEN KITTY CAFE, another still, top secret.. ;)
I've mentioned to a few friends "over there" that I might be visiting, it seems it just might be more of a trip than I imagined.  I have a good friend In Norway I would love to see & stay with, there are a few details that still need tended to before I travel like.. should I bring Poppy? lol

With all the terrible, ridiculous raids in Toronto lately it's a wonderful, creative diversion to research and find traditional icons to suit the little buds.
The next bud is on the the drawing desk! Waiting for details!!
Who would you like to see represent!?   India Bud? Australian Bud? German Bud?
I will also incorporate little  ideas/props as well.. keeping in tune with the toon.
The Thistle was too easy.  

Please remember around the world people are struggling with canabis education and  unjust punishment over a plant. Some counties much harsher than the USA or Canada still. 
ONE love should bring it to the forefront - end the insanity - so we can ALL focus on helping and healing each other.  Plants over Pills! 

Do you know a man made disaster that killed countless? Still does really..
Prescription drugs.  Read this: http://www.thalidomide.ca/tvac-mission/
Lies and it is STILL happening today. So sad this 'wonder drug' came over to Canada- the USA did not allow it- but they have made up for that attitude since ;(.  The manufactures were terrible humans and knew what they were doing- they continued for profit.
JUST like pharmaceutical companies today who try to convince us the medicine will help.
Let's try to continue to educate around the world 'ONE  LOVE' mean just that people
ONE LOVE!

Send me a message!  Help Me design the 'International Cannabis collection' 
If I draw 'your bud suggestion' - I'll send you a comic and postcard! 

Here is a drawing I did long ago from my friend Robert - he planted the seed  I guess with the 'World Wide Cannais Tribe'! 
I can't wait to start the next!  Let's show the world how much we love our little BUDS!

Believe

Well, it's one thing to have people send you photos of your post card or original art that they have had frames .. its another thing when you see a BUS  - Not just any bus - but the Cannabus over in Scotland - completely  decorated with GeorgiaToons art work!  WOW!
I saw the photos yesterday morning when I logged onto my 'other page'- the one that still allows me to socialize and see posts from a few of my friends.  I knew the bus was coming along- I've been watching from the start - I had no idea it would be decorated with my art work.  I keep thinking of the many people that will see this bus- If I know Robert- that will be many. lol - He's a bit of a social butterfly - that guy- and we have never met in person,  but he has a piece of my heart, and knows it.  Robert also is well aware of cannabis - in every aspect - and is as passionate about it for a medicine for Children as I am. 

A cannabus - I wish my bags were packed and ready to board the bus! I wonder if Poppy can gather overseas papers in record time- i wonder how that does work.  lol
It's a seed I've planted in my own mind &  we will see how it grows.  For now I will live vicariously through my friend Robert- if he allows :) and travel with him on that bus  with my art  - that is the most amazing start!  Yes, when I saw the photos, I blushed!  Storm shakes his head- 'Why does stuff continually surprise you like that mom? Your work means much to many."   

My work has only ever meant most to me- when it has helped our son. 
The impact it appears to have made on others was all an added blessing I never expected.
I feel incredibly emotional over a bus today ;) who knew. 
Thank you Robert. Thank you everyone who  has a postcard  framed or even help on the fridge with a magnet. THANK YOU! 
Wow, now I'm teary..  lol   time to paint my squirrels- I'm feeling so loved.
​
OH, you might remember Robert  also  purchased 'ZenKitty' a couple of years ago - for his Zen Kitty Cafe in Scotland and  just purchased a NEW logo! I'M EXCITED for him and this new venture! It's top secret at the moment- as soon as it is a reality - i'll share with you.

I am very honoured and proud to have made such wonderful friends ALL around the world.
Because of Cannabis - who knew?
The Universe, God..  the world wide cannabis tribe  knows & has a plan for us and this plant still, I smell it in the air.  

Feeling blessed 
Believe

I will add more photos as the Bus and  the journey continue.
