08.09.BrandoHill.51La Joie

Life is a river. A never ending flow of surprise and reflection. Some surprises come wrapped in challenge and static. When an old and dear friend-the kind in which months and even years can pass with no contact for when at last you reunite it is as if no time has passed-drops in for a surprise visit, it is only pure simple joy that can follow.

A very dear friend, Brandon Hill, made his visit recently. Bringing with him the lovely mountain girl named Ty, we took our short time to the park at Kiya’s request. For it was Kiya’s introduction to the charm of “Brando,” and the two together quickly combined their powers. The day was hot, almost unbearably so. However it was of little concern as memories of yesterday and plans of tomorrow blossomed in the heat, beads of gratitude dripping from our chins.

Korea Knows How to Party!

September 22nd, 2009

One of life’s simple joys is Korean family dinners. I have been to two in my life, and though the number is small, my memory of the experiences is anything but. The food never seems to stop coming, faces are always squished with the most delightful Asian smile, and hospitality in its truest form seems to dance around the room.

Recently Steph, Kiya and myself were invited to a friends of ours Grandfather’s birthday. This was Kiya’s 1st of many experiences with Miso and the like, and of course she was a hit as well.
