On the day I arrived in Boston, my friend in MA, US published a book written about paper. The title is ` On Paper  THE EVERYTHING OF ITS TWO-THOUSAND YEAR HISTORY ` by Nicholas A. Basbanes .  I couldn't meet him this time, but he kindly sent me one to my friend's in NY so that I could have a look on my trip.

He referes to my name in the story of Echizen Washi Village. It was several years ago when we met in the village on his trip for interviews.

Paper world is very small, so some how we can be connected the one I don't know yet or I will know in the future. Carriage House Paper was also seen in the book, where I visited this time during my stay in NYC. There will be so many things that I can learn from this book.
