Hong Kong

ON THIS DAY
On July 1, 1997, Hong Kong reverted to Chinese rule after 156 years as a British colony.

Our daughter's friend Ming visited his Grandparents that year and sent us a dated postcard from Hong Kong We haven't seen Ming in awhile; we will treasure a tiny piece of history.

We are missing Sophia and Allison- it's been a whole 6 days since we have been in their sweet company. New photos in the works.

Weather here has been just wonderful some heavy rain - but not for long- blue skies, sunshine, not too hot.
On the Agenda- Erika and John's wedding and a reunion in august.
Orlando in October. SMW and PH will be going to Belo Horzonte, Brazil in October for a wedding. They also plan to visit SRW in San Francisco this month for a week.
Gigi is recovering nicely from her surgery last Tuesday-
we plan to visit while in the area that 3rd week of August.
I have been trying to find old photos - from 1986- somewhere around here-
we have an enviable collection of postcards - one of these days I will collect and organize- maybe launch a touring display .......and some need to be framed- like the one we have from T`epotzlan- a magical place.
Happy 4th to all who revere our Constitution...and are hoping beyond hope that our "America" will restore her dignity.
I will be cheering for Italy ! ! and Brazil !! in the FIFA finals.
enjoy the weekend...........
