The TanVan Chronicles Letters from the Peace Corps Ilboru Revisited, The Peace Corps Rejoined One Fewer than the Sixth Power of Two |
A tenth-anniversary reunion, electronically, suggested to my Peace Corps group in the spring of 2004, was stillborn, but the home page my longtime, computer-literate friend, Dow, developed for it survived, and my web site is showing its first signs of life with the TanVan Chronicles. On August 23, 2003 Dow and I celebrated the lives of my wife and her mother with a memorial hike and the commingling of their ashes on a bluff overlooking the Crystal Lakes and affording a good view of Mt. Rainier; my photo, with Sourdough Gap in the background, was taken that day. The favorable reactions of her relatives to the illustrated biography of my mother-in-law have prompted me to begin describing my own life and times and those, as best I know them, of my forebears. Our project is in its initial, experimental phase, and your critical reactions to it will certainly be appreciated. "Waboo" and "Babu"? Read on my friend. |
