Prickly Pear Cactus

Well, I have begun a new piece.  Our daughter and her 5 kids have been here, so I have not gotten very far yet.  I had other fun to enjoy for a few days.  However, they left this evening so tomorrow is a studio day.  The delay was just right, I've had time to think on how I want to handle this.  I'm off to get some needed sleep, (I do not have the energy for a pack of kids that I used to) and will get on it in the morning.  Stay tuned...
