M. Cecile Blaine, Scottsdale Progress, 1990
“A jungle-like bohemian retreat from life in the desert, the back yard of the Alwun House is dense with palm trees and lush foliage, with a fish pond in one corner and an aviary in the other. A man bends down to play with a two-pound Japanese goldfish in the pond. Scooping him out of the water with his hands, he playfully tosses him back into the pond a few feet away. The fish is disoriented for a moment and then quickly returns to the edge for more.”
