I got back from Bali exactly one week ago.
Thank you to everyone who made this trip possible!

It was a truly amazing experience, and I am deeply grateful to have a community of people who believe in me. I hope to be able to tell everyone about it personally.

I put my photos from the trip up on Flickr:

I am now making sure I get everyone their pledge reward. Please be a little patient, and I will get everything out shortly.

I hope to speak to you soon.

This will be such an amazing adventure, one that wouldn't be possible without your support.

In the next week I will be preparing the pledge rewards, and they will be in your hands as soon as they are ready to go.

Hope you are having a wonderful 2010, and I will talk to you soon.

Hi everyone,

Right now I'm making music boxes for the holidays, and I thought you might enjoy this little video of the musical movements before they are put into their wooden boxes. They are the same boxes that you can get as a pledge reward.

P.S. We're at $800! There's only one month to go but I know we can do it.

Hooray! We've reached $525!

If you can, please pass word of this project on to others.
