Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I added a cover to the book "The Fabulous Frontier." You and I are the only two members that have this book listed in our libraries, so I thought I'd share. Thanks and happy reading!

With your love of Mexican ceramics, you should consider going on the rendezvous with Los Amigos del Arte Popular, June 27-July 4. It is not too late. To see the details of the trip, go to www.ladap.org and choose Events then choose Our Next Rendezvous. Jorge Wilmot will present to our group and we will enjoy a private exhibition & sale for us by 20+ of the best ceramic artisans of Tonala. - Cathey Merrill

Hello missmonk - we share 26 books in common and after reading your book list, it seems we share a love of Mexico and Mexican folk art. I invite you to visit our website at www.ladap.org and consider joining our national non-profit organization named Los Amigos del Arte Popular. Our goal is to promote & educate the public about Mexican folk art and we use our membership dues and trip registration fees to carry out those projects. We last published an Artes de Mexico book in cooperation with them about the glazed pottery made in Tlaquepaque between 1920-1945; two of our members were contributing writers and all photos used are pieces owned by our members. Happy hunting and have fun reading! - Cathey Merrill

You and I are the only ones that have "Echogee." I feel sorry for all those poor deprived people out there. ;-) Linda
