Hey, May!

Happy May! Happy 25th to Travy. Congrats to Dad for winning the primary! Happy Graduation to Cheney!

Last week was Golden Week here, so I had some days off. I did some sight seeing with Japanese friends and spent a whole day with Wendy! She was here for business and visiting. It was a nice holiday from work. Back to normal schedule now, no more breaks until the end, July 18th.

I signed the China contract, so if all goes according to plan, I'm going back to China.

I got visa's sorted out for Cheney and myself to go to Vietnam and I've been working on some other plans for that Korea/Nam trip. I'm really looking forward to it.

Classes and things are going well here. The kids have been improving and we have fun together. They wear me out, but they're great. I'm still going to Japanese class once a week and I'm slowly increasing my vocab and grammar.

That's all that's new here. Just living. It's good.

I went to a traditional village with my friend. This dude taught me how to play
