Hey, mark,

Thank you! Beautiful language. I've added those to my phrasebook, so next year I can greet you and know what I've said!

Creeping along...I just saw a wonderful show about an architect there who is a caucasian native, who is designing homes made from native materials, in native ways, and with considerations such as which way the winds blow, to let them help to keep a home cooled down, as well as how to blend in with the beauty of nature, etc. Uses bamboo, and if I remember correctly ironwood. His homes that they showed were really beautiful. His first name was Karey, I think last name was Smoot. I was very impressed. Such beauty there.

Thanks, again, Mark.
