o3 Summer 2008 Arc A di A Home F r o m t h e P u b l i s h e r O ur inaugural issue in December was received with rave reviews and top props from the readers. One woman told me that she always wanted to knock on some of the doors in Arcadia to see if she could steal a peek at what’s inside. I couldn’t agree more; part of the joy in creating this is finding those doors to knock on. We have been very fortunate with our chosen homes and we are extremely grateful to the Arcadians who have allowed us to share their personal spaces in these pages. Welcome to the summer edition of this bi-annual exhibition of Arcadia homes. As always, I welcome comments and feedback via e-mail: greg@arcadianews.com. Greg A.
