happy Valentine's Day

Now here is an interesting fact...when the people of Oshima in Japan wish to make a new Kimono the first step they take is to procure the finest silk made in the world. They soak it and roll it up and tie it together...then the walk over to the edge of the mud that lies there...and throw it in...and leave it for several months...then move it closer to the tree with the red berries and leave it again...

Now these are said to be the finest kimonos in the world and cost between six to ten thousand dollars when finished....
