Summer

Soon after arriving in Milwaukee, I saw the Big Bang fireworks show on July 3rd, followed by the fireworks at Atwater beach on the fourth. I spent a few days in Washington D.C., a weekend in northern Wisconsin, and lots of time seeing family and friends in Milwaukee and Oconomowoc. In August, Charlie and I spent a weekend in Chicago and saw a lot of music in Grant Park. When Martha returned home from camp, we skied on Lac La Belle and spent time at our grandparent's house.

I've posted some pictures from the summer on Flickr.

At the end of August lies one more trip, and this one will lead me eventually back to Nanjing, China. On the 26th I'll fly to Denver to meet Charlie and stay with out aunt Sara and uncle Glen in Loveland, CO. On the 27th we'll drive to Utah and camp for a night. On the 28th we'll be near Reno and Lake Tahoe. On the 29th we'll reach San Francisco and stay with our cousin Sukey in the Bay Area. On September 1st I'll catch a flight to Shanghai and from there a train to Nanjing. School starts on the 7th.

I am thinking of you as you depart for China and more adventures. It was great to have you in Oconomowoc for good visits and fun. The triplets, Mike & Britt come this weekend and Ann, Nora & Sara. Hope it is warm. 47 degrees yesterday a.m. John & I will see Yellowstone & the Tetons soon with a stop at Sara & Glen's.
