Thanks

This is a WordPress blog.

The theme is based on Bernie v1.0 by Bernie (don’t have a good url).

I put together the header art in Photoshop. It is based on the japanese theme of sho-chiku-bai (pine, bamboo, plum blossom) which represents strength, courage, and beauty.

• The photo of pine is Third Generation Pine Tree at Karasaki Jinja By ax2groin on flickr.
• The photo of bamboo is Bamboo leaves by luce_beaulieu on flickr
• The photo of blossoms are mine and are cherry not plum from the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.
