Otoharo!
Glad to meet you. I spent a week in northern Michigan when I did lecture tours with Inner Peace Movement back in the 70's. A lovely background you have. I am a native Texan. I spent lots of time at my granmother's house. She taught me, or got me started at least, in crochet and knitting. She taught me how bees swarm, and what she did with them, All the nature things that my mother had to time for, being always nursing a baby or pregnant.
