archives: Thailand, 2005

I am so saddened by what is going on in Thailand, and their neighbor India. I love it there, everywhere, and hope to return before too long.

Time flies

I cannot believe this election is almost finally over, and with it another year coming to a close. Thinking about what it means to be American makes me want to travel very much. It is important to see things from the outside once in a while. I was in Washington this past weekend and that always puts me in a contemplative mood. Do you think the founding fathers thought it would last this long?
