After an imposed hiatus from placing due to end of the semester craziness and a lovely visit from an upper respiratory infection, crane placing has recommenced. I placed this crane and then decided to get myself a carton of fries for the road. When I was leaving, I'm pretty sure I saw the guy that had picked up the crane looking at it. He then took it with him and left. That's the first time I've actually seen someone take a crane! (I usually try to make sure I'm on my way out before placing.) Definitely excited to see it was found by someone.

  1. So wait- you're making 1,000 cranes with words on them and leaving them throughout the country?

    Bad ass.

    In fact, you should make a 1,001th crane with the word "badass."

    Cool idea!

  3. DUDE! I also downloaded the holiday songs list from Target! I thought Electronic Santa Claus was so hilariously ridiculous because, seriously, who would play techno Christmas music at home?

  5. Wow -this project is amazing!! It'll be interesting to follow this! Is it your thing to place all the cranes yourself, one by one? Wish you a lovely holiday/ Eva Sweden

  6. Sandy, when I was in the fourth grade, my class read the book about the 1,000 cranes and we also as a class made a 1,000. However, I like your idea with a word on each one. I am sure you already know, but there is a festival in japan to commemorate the little girl since she had died before she finished her 1,000. Once you finish your 1,0000, will too make a wish? I honestly don't remember the wish my class made when we finished ours.
