Than you so much - and there is still time...

Thanks Wladek!  
The furniture is as much sculpture as functional and the porcelains are a fun distraction.
I'm hoping to push the firm into the core and shell arena soon.  I'd like it to be fully staffed and funded when I turn 50, so my last thirty years are focused on architecture.
I hope your son's b-day was great.

I'm shocked he's 21!
I feel old.
Best,
