Great grandpa Lum left Zhongshan in 1896. About all I carry of that is the name, limited facial hair - and my chopstick chops. The waiters at my usual restaurants bring them to me automatically. I feel seen!

Dinner Saturday was at an Indian restaurant where we were the only non-Desi (South Asians) in the place along with a couple dozen Desis. Had a non-vegetarian thali.

Sunrise from my study: colors were more striking today, but yesterday a couple of deer were visiting.

If you're in or near Portland, Oregon, visit Lan Su Chinese Garden. All nature's splendors are contained in one city block, styled after administrator's retreats in 1700 China. I'm a docent - lemme give you a tour! lansugarden.org
