Farewell to my late mother-in-law





She outlived her cancer prognosis by nearly a year. She was never in serious pain. She was well-cared for by her loving children, and more than a thousand people came to her visitation and funeral. Meanwhile I, stuck here half a world away, can only post a few pics, and hope that they along with these bald words will communicate the love & appreciation I had for her. I like to think that she was rather fond of her giant, horse-faced American son-in-law, too. RIP, Omoni...

Newfound Gap, on the Blue Ridge Parkway, near Gatlinburg TN




From the family trove of Kodak slides. My father on his honeymoon. The punch-holes are from the original slide processing. Click on the image, both to enjoy what a rustically handsome fellow he was, and to dig all the now-classic cars.

Korea Trip 2009

Seoul, on the grounds of a historical palace.



Seoul, in front of a historical palace. Sorry, but I'm too lazy to look up the names of the different palaces we went to.
