In February Brad wrote to me to let me know that my donation (Covarrubias-Art Forms Of The Pacific print) may be sold as part of the decor if the buyer wanted everything intact. He offered to send me a photo of the print in Hale Tiki if it sold or send it back if the sale did not go through. A couple days ago he said he was sending it back (framed!) with a photo and another painting I sent that he did not use. My dealings with Brad have always been positive (he sent me a mug) and so I can only say that patience and kindness can go along way. I have had a couple of minor problems with other TCers that were just misunderstandings that at the time seemed huge, but in the bigger scheme of life (and Tiki) turned out to be very tiny. I'm glad I did not air my annoyance here first as we are all friends now.
