Boy I am glad I read this list daily or I would have made a wasted
trip out to look for aT's sig stamp. I should go make the rounds
anyway and see who has visited sea creatures and move box 4 since it
is surrounded by thistles and I was ecologically insensitive when I
placed it. So glad to hear the famous stamp was found...it is a tiny
work of art and deserves to be seen in many, many more logbooks
throughout the west (and wider world).

I did stop in the rain today to check on the new sculpture show at
Paradise Ridge Sculpture Garden. IT is a fantastic show with works by
internationally and nationally recognized artists like McArthur genius
grant recipient Ned Kahn (although his piece was pretty vanilla). The
best piece of the show was the poetry house by Bruce Johnson. It is a
takeoff on a Japanese tearoom and was built by hand from a single old
growth redwood and it is incredible.

It is also a stone's throw (literally) from the letterbox there. I
checked on it and only 3 visitors in almost a year. And the clue is a
haiku! How serendipitious is that.....someone goes and builds a
poetry house next door. Put it on your list to nab while the show is
on and you can enjoy some great art as well. The wine is pretty good
too.

Carole and Gary....I have used up all your great containers...and
can't find any of the korean tupperware ones at the asian markets near
me...can I send you money for some more? And the walmart, Kmart,
Sportmart stores near me dont carry camo tape....I guess Sonoma County
is not into hunting enough...
