Clear Englebert
Francene Hart
Feng Shui for Hawaii Gardens
This class will show how Feng Shui principles can be applied to the tropical garden and the unique Hawaiian Landscape.  In Feng Shui the garden is seen as the first chance to invite good energy (chi or ki) and the best opportunity to deflect harsh energy.  Topics will include landform, pathways, and water features as well as ornamentals and the relation of garden to home.
Clear Englebert is the author of Feng Shui for Hawai'i and the newly revised Feng Shui Demystified. He has practiced and taught feng shui in Hawai'i and California since 1995.  A recognized Feng Shui expert, he has been featured on television programs and in print media.

Saturday, October 1 from 1-4pm.  $25.00

Lastly, regarding apostrophes: my apologies to those of you who were bothered by my use of "Sunday's" (with an apostrophe) in our last e-mail.  I assure you that it was an error of oversight and not of ignorance.  You might be interested in the new book from Lynne Truss, author of Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Girl's Like Spaghetti.  As for Brenda and I, I'm afraid one of our very worst skills is proofreading, so you'll probably continue to spot errors like this from time to time.  Just try to remember that we each have many other redeeming characteristics...

Thanks for listening and READING supporting your LOCAL BOOKSTORE!!
