Jason,
I'm glad you remember what she did. For those of you who were not aware,
as best my memory serves me there was a gentleman who went to japan and bought the koi of their dreams and brought it home. They learned of a youngster that was ill and needed help financially so he auctioned off this very special koi with the intent to give the money to help. ( glad i can't be seen, as feelings are beginning to show as i retell what happened!)
Anyway savannah bid the highest price, sent the money in to help the child and thern donated the koi back to his original owner!
Thanks for including your photo series. It does show that asagi's as tosai
don't look like much. watching them progress to three when the asagi han comes into it's full is what is fun. Then the chore begins to keep them looking good! tain't easy! I think you have a pretty nice koi there jason!
