welcome!It sure is fun exploring this new medium. My son Julien has given me the amazing gift of this web site. My own Cabinet of Curiosities is on display. It is a wonderful way to continue to pay attention to those ideas and projects that have meant so much to me. If you think Julien could help you, contact him: <jc.whitney@yahoo.com>
I welcome your thoughts and comments.
