| Ganesha is staying in the north Denver metro area in Federal Heights for a bit longer. I met Sherry at a New Year Eve party where she told us the story of the White Elephant Gift and I found it to be a great idea. As a student of religions with a big interest in Hinduism, the elephant symbolism is very appealing to me. I also am concerned about my acquisitive tendencies and love the thought of a traveling gift. Unlike the original White Elephants, this one is easy to maintain and also to regift. It has been my inspiration and pleasure to have it in my living room for 6 months. I am planning to give it to my daughter who lives back in Fort Collins and is about to give birth to my 1st grandchild. Thanks to Sherry for reminding me to update the story and pass on the art. It was good to see her back at the home of our common friends, Mike and Debra to celebrate Independence Day. Did I remember how you spell your name correctly? Thank you William for your art and for sending the White Elephant into the world. I wish you peace, happiness and good fortune.. |

| JB has it. WOW. I wonder who JB is and why he knows so much about White Elephants. I really got excited about the elephant traveling. I also am wondering how hard it is to choose who you will give the gift too or who will take it. For some odd reason I feel extremely famous because of a weird piece of art. I also am wondering what will happen to Shari now that she has given the Elephant away. I look so forward to hearing the stories. I feel like a kid at Christmas time waiting. I am sure the white elephant is being taken care of. Ganesha is a great name for her. Letting go of her is difficult. Is she ok? I love her? Is she still in Fort Collins? WOW it is incredible what a piece of art can evoke in one’s mind. It is an object! Art is Evocative. William |
