Hi Deb,
Thanks for your comment on Vulgare.
Your blog is really interesting.

Thanks very much! I have Vulgare on my Google reader, so get to see your posts as they arrive. Always interesting…
A friend of mine, Taka Kobayashi, of Japan is the builder of the tree house in your picture. Here is a link to some more about Taka!
