There once was a land, no further away than your imagination. A Land where the Trees’ whispers can be heard on the wind. And the squirrels chitter and chatter as they scamper to and fro amongst the branches - playing their endless game of tag.
A Land where the Brooks babble endlessly amid fern covered banks. Fish and Tadpoles play a game of Leapfrog in the clear, cool water and Turtles sunbathe nearby.
A Land where the tall Grasses sway in the breeze as if dancing to a distant tune. Wild flowers wave their petals at the busy Bees who fly by; Beckoning to them. Enticing them.
A Land where the Deer graze peacefully in the lush, green valleys. A Land where the Birds and the Faeries gather in the bushes of an evening to share the day's gossip. And the Frog serenade, with Cricket accompaniment, continues well into the night.
A Land where the morning sun melts the night into the shadows of the day. And at sunset the shadows melt into night. But there are times when the shadows melt into things best left to one’s imagination.
A Land of Melting Shadows.

Hi Jeanne!
Being a Funeral Director/Embalmer Apprentice, I can REALLY appreciate these caskets! Where I was formerly employed, we had a beautiful flat-top, wood inlaid casket that would be a beautiful coffee table! But, unfortunately, I couldn't convince the owners to come down on the lovely price of $25,000! Oh well!

I have driven by this museum many times but never stopped in. Seems I'm always on the way to somewhere else. It's only a 30 minute drive though, perhaps some day I'll stop.
Hmmmm....me thinks a giant tennis shoe coffin is a bit extreme...ha! If I were going to go that direction with a coffin styled like a representing object for myself....I think I'd have to make mine a giant Pumpkin! :o)
I am a huge fan of the Amazing race and this past week one of their challenges was to deliver coffins like these,,they are very cool.
Caskets are almost as expensive as cars! Funny thing... they do not transport the departed to where they want to go!
these are so cool! i saw the amazing race episode with the caskets, too. thanks for sharing them!!
Umm...I don't really even know what to say...
Actually - I do like the idea of the banana leaves - very environmentally friendly!
Is the three-person casket for deceaseds who were in a menage a trois?
