1000 & Going

Thanks to all of you fantastic and loyal followers we reached 1000 likes on facebook—whoohoo!! In honor of this great number thought it would be fun to check out some fun facts tied to this number.

From 0 to 1,000, the letter "A" only appears in 1,000 ("one thousand").
In the year 1000 the world was one of mystery and magicians, monks,
warriors and wandering merchants - people who feared an apocalypse and
people who had no idea what year it was or what lay beyond the nearest
valley.
 
One thousand cranes signify healing. When there is a sick person,
people fold one thousand Origami cranes by wishing his/her recovery
that the number one thousand has a special significance for healing in
Japan. 

The ancient Egyptians symbolized the number1,000 with a picture of a lotus flower.
