I checked it out online as well and was also confused about their business model but I admit that I briefly fantasized about having a large elephant in my garden when I viewed your post. However, elephants fit a tropical setting much better than my garden's current desert-like setting. It's definitely worth a visit, though.Kris Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097260283693156795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-87403761092586455102022-07-11T12:01:25.096-07:002022-07-11T12:01:25.096-07:00What a cool looking place!

Really makes you feel you are in Bali or somewhere similar, but then again the mild California weather helps with the planting scheme.<br /><br />Funny enough, we've put coins on one of our buddha sculptures, apparently an auspicious thing to do and a sign of respect. We used coins from Asia collected through the years, seems appropriate. Love incense, but not the incense/crystal crowd, unless the crystal is in reference to a vessel to put a good drink in!Mark and Gazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427245730390252976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-43143465287166159502022-07-11T09:58:47.142-07:002022-07-11T09:58:47.142-07:00This is insane!

Yes, they have to make a living, but they're obviously confident enough that a dollar here or there or even snatched away (because someone truly needed it) doesn't matter.
