Where I Wish I'd Been


You may recall the Totoro Forest Project mentioned here previously. I got an email from the live-wire fire-balls who ran the auction, saying they'd presented $185,221 toward the purchase of two sections of land to the Totoro Forest Foundation in Japan. And they sent photos. Here are a few of them. Please allow your mind to take a little walk in them.



Ah, that felt good.

    I adore your artwork. . .

    My daughter told me about the auction but with my move I forgot about it ! Thank You so much for the pictures.
    The Forests and Clouds in Japan are just the way Miyazaki draws them Magical.

    I am a big fan of Hayao Miyazaki and of course Totoro.
    On my first trip to Japan we had to go to to the Totoro Museum, it's a hoot they pick you up in the big Yellow Cat Bus with the Dust Sprites! whooo hooo !
