Thank you Andrew Brown and Galya Diment, for your kind words about the web page of Nabokov's Ithaca homes. I am very delighted to know that the photographs are helpful. And thank you all who came and will come to see them.

Now I am preparing another page to celebrate Nabokov's birthday. If you have
something you would like to dedicate to him and share with us on the
web, please let me know. Poems, chess problems, crossword puzzles,
acrostics, anagrams, riddles, quizzes, pictures, photographs, etc. -- anything will do as far as it is related
with VN in some way. So far, two chess problemists have promised me to compose *special* problems and a painter to draw a portrait.
Please join us!

Best wishes,
Akiko Nakata
