Merry Christmas and happy 2009

I almost forgot to wish this to the patient readers of my blog. Between 500 and 1,000 people read this blog every day! Many of those are coming frequently. In one year there are somewhere between 15,000 and 25,000 DIFFERENT readers here. This means that only the most popular bonsai fourms come close to the hit rates of this blog. Very similar numbers are true for the gallery.
