Hrm... something went wrong.

July 20th - via: kickstarter.com

Over half way to goal. Three days to go!

July 17th - via: kickstarter.com
Dear Everyone We are now over halfway there - although a ways to go in only three days. But I am really thrilled at everyone's contributions and learning a lot about myself doing this fund-raising. I have now finally come to the conclusion that... (Read More)

Are you all getting individual thank you notes from me via KS

July 9th - via: kickstarter.com
I have written to all of you via KS. Some of you I don't have any other way of contacting. So I was rather concerned when I heard that someone had NOT had a note from me. Please let me know if you didn't. I will address with KS. - T  (Read More)

I see the facebook problem

July 7th - via: kickstarter.com

New video to replace the current one

June 26th - via: kickstarter.com
A few people mentioned that they didn't like the video. So (obedient as I am) I made a new one with the help of my friend Joe. The problem was traffic noises, helicopters, being in a flight path, kids and bugs! Oh, and birds. But I still think it is... (Read More)
