Howdy Kerstin,
We sell our scopes in art galleries and a few shops that still carry kaleidoscopes only. We sell a fair amount to galleries and museums in Japan. Our scopes are listed on our website but we don't sell off it. People have to contact a gallery.
I have been a "stepmom" for 18 years. The kids hate that word step. They are all grown up adults now and we have a great relationship.
Our cute little girl is a Maltese. A purebread we found almost four years ago in the street in the Laguna Beach area. We tried very hard to find her owners but they did not want to be found. "Baby", was somewhere between one and one half years old when we found her. She has seizures (sp?) but they are pretty much under control. She is a 10 pound little girl who ownes two people (us) two cars, a house and everything else we have. :D
Anyway, I have to go now. It has been a long day. We expected to fly home tomorrow but Ken's mom will only live a day or two longer so we are staying in Portland. I think you leave for Germany tomorrow. I look forward to reading your chats and hope we stay in touch.
Safe trip
