Rochester Minnesota - Celebrating 87!


Hong Kong - JAMF Team out with USA visitor







Lisa came for a visit so we headed up to Ozone to show her HK from the top of the world - 118 stories up.  
Perfect day and the views were fabulous both day and when it got dark.

Hong Kong - Mid Autumn Festival








I got back for the day off for the mid-autumn festival.  The night before there are lanterns and light displays throughout Hong Kong.
And the street artists continue to add new looks and flavors to the cityscape.
Another super warm and humid day.  But it sure doesn't keep all of us from being out and about and on the streets enjoying the day.  Still lots of great sunshine - and not much rain.

Saint Paul Minnesota - Qifan joins the team






We met our new friend Qifan on Saturday - pronounced Chee-fawn.
Qifan joins us from Chengdu China and is getting ready to study Biology at Macalester.  A perfect Saturday in September so we enjoyed the deck and got to see how good his bbq skills were.
Petar is trying to catch up with "Crash Qu" with his car.  It sounds like everyone is already in full gear with the new term - and have full loads to keep them out of trouble.
Long got in a few naps so he was rested from San Diego and ready to hang out with us this weekend!

Saint Paul Minnesota - Labor Day Weekend and a beautiful week that followed



Made it in to Saint Paul for most of the long weekend.
Great day at the lake - couldn't have been a nicer day.
Unfortunately, it was week two of a flu bug going around Australia but it only slowed me down a bit. Got to do most of what I had planned to do.

Sydney Australia - alternative Saturday




















We had planned a day on the boat on Pittwater - but winter rain and wind set a different path.
So I hit some of those places I always said I need to "get to" - and wow, sorry I hadn't been there earlier.
And of course Sunday was a perfect day for doing anything......

Auckland New Zealand - Lots of wintery sunshine


































Back for a couple days.  Flew in to a rainy mess but the sun came out today and it was a wonderful winter day.
Refreshing place to be.
