“Delta Dawn, what’s that flower you have on?” 

Oh, Filthy Dreamers, remember when Delta was simply the fourth letter in the Greek alphabet, the name of an airline, or a word in an old Helen Reddy song?

And remember that sweet, sweet era of mid-May through mid-July, 2021?  The Summer Of Freedom!  We saw old friends!  We traveled!  It felt almost…normal.

Well, needless to say, that feeling has shifted a bit as of late.

Still, in our house, we are trying to look on the bright side.

First and foremost, all of our friends are fully vaccinated.

Secondly, a not-insane POTUS!  (And BTW, if you’re feeling meh about Biden’s performance, please stop and take a moment.  Then take another moment and REMEMBER THE GUY IN THERE BEFORE HIM!  Then stop your bitching.)

Let’s see…what else?  Oh yes, cows are evidently being potty-trained to save the planet!  And we are certain that Bossy’s gonna take the piss out of global warming!

With that in mind – and heading into autumn with a sense of cautious optimism – here’s a cartoon for ya.  As usual, I wrote it and my supa dupa husband Rusty drew it.
