Doing well, thanks! Down here around Yokohama, we caught just the edge of the snowstorm you’re referring to. There was still accumulation left in shady spots almost a week later, but there were no road closures in our area.

The Koi print that I bought was only about $30, believe it or not. That’s for just the print with a stiff cardboard backing. The same gallery wanted $150 for the print with a frame. They had pieces that were selling for a LOT more, but that particular print caught my eye, so I bought it on a whim when I was told how inexpensive it would be. There are bargains to be had in this place, if you’re intrepid.

I’m so glad to hear that the storm missed you! I’m not all that familiar with Japan, but given then name of a town/city or province, I can pretty well figure things out from there.

If the print were for sale here, there is no telling how much it would go for, depending on the venue.

And how many people here would know the value of such a thing?
