Harry, Barbara, and Frank,

I think one of the most important things one can do in this world is to give
the gift of time and care to others, especially to children. Having also
spent some time as an Artist in Residence in a few Sacramento schools, where
I taught printmaking, I can empathize completely with your experiences. My
hat is off to you all. I was especially touched Barbara, by the comment of
"...bestest day of my whole life", and Frank, Oh Frank, you are just a gem,
as are you Harry - it gets harder to give up that precious creative time as one
gets older, and the temper of our times appears to be so weighted towards self
gratification, that the example set by the three of you is most heartwarming.

As Ever
Carol in Sacramento

Hi a quick note to say I am safely in Baja. I made a great find along the
way on the Oregon coast. i bought a 5 gallon bucket full of myrtle wood
scraps. They are mostly small in size and most are planed. It cost me a
whopping $15.00. YEAH I have wood in Baja to carve. Tell you later how it
works.
