Back to Work
This is a photo of me taking a photo at the Bangladesh National Martyr’s Monument in Savar. I say farewell, because we have a flight scheduled to return home to the USA on March 23. The three months here, felt like we had never left. So many memories, and good friends in Bangladesh.
What’s behind that gate?
This young girl and I were surprised when we both entered this hallway and saw each other. So many memories of visiting her Uncles at a different location. Now she is probably 10 years older, and so am I! 🙂 What a nice surprise!
Also inside gate is this special family: Masum and his family. I met Masum 15 years ago, and we played soccer (football) together for 8 years. A very good friend! I enjoyed playing with the children, and enjoyed a nice meal of curried fish & chicken, dal, and rice!
In “my happy place!”
“Drawing a Bead” on a street dog with his rubber band!
As the market prepares for another day it is hit with bright sunlight which we hadn’t seen for several days!
The drizzly day turned into a downpour just in time for us to go out! Rickshaw Wallah was prepared with a piece of plastic keeping us quite dry till we arrived at our destination. It did let up by the time we returned. This week we had several short rains, but this is likely the first heavy rain since October!
Both of these cards brought me pleasure when I received them recently! The drawing of the Loon took me back to 1993, when my son, Austin did the drawing and made cards with it. Thanks, Carol for sending this card, with the care package! The second card meant a lot because it was from Farhana, a fellow photographer, whom I had met 14 years ago. She made this card for me using the the Cyanotype printing technique. It was nice to catch up with her after not chatting for at least 8 years. Sometimes the things that might look little, are big because they are so precious. Thanks Carol and Farhana for taking the time to share these meaningful cards with me.
