Hello to all.I just happened to stumble across this site during a fit of random ?oogle?searches.What a fantastic surprise.I first became acquainted with Professor Harington four years ago.I had enrolled in one of his Art History boot camp?r.. seminars and he was introducing himself to the class.Having suffered from a profound hearing loss of my own as a child, I was immediately intrigued by his style of communication.I developed a great deal of respect for the man and his methods.Heis the sort of college professor that I thought they all would be like.Sadly, he is one of a kind, at a time when the schools need more like him.I went out and purchased a copy ofThe Choiring of the Treesand loved it.I have been buying the books ever since.I managed to introduce several friends to the wonderful placethat is Stay More, Arkansas.I get a sense of pride from that, as if I had something to do with writing the books.Isn? that funny?Anyway, I recently discovered the Toby Press editions and have been mailing them out to friends everywhere.Two of my friends are overseas, and are avid fans as well.I just finished ordering copies ofWithandThe Architecture of the Ozarkssent to Belgium and Iraq.I can? wait to get their feedback.We had some good times withThirteen Albatrosses.Anyway, just wanted to say ?ello?on my first day and say that I really love the website.It is quite nice looking and well organized.I? working on one of my own, and since I? self taught, it is a little on the amateur side.I know this one is well built.My question is: who drew the map on the welcome page?I hopeto be talking to all of you soon.Stay More!Regards.SD

I'll look around for a better one. This one was a picture of Giorgio Morandi. I've been doing a little reading on him and sort of liked the picture. I need to get one of my own up there.
