Well, he should be in the air by now on the way to NYC to teach some linquistics. He is 38 years old, so it isn’t the first time he has left home! In fact one of the times he left home, we followed him and now live with him in Bangladesh! This isn’t a photo of him this morning, but one of him walking up the street on another day.
See you in Ohio!
I love this ad on the wall of a building near Coffee World in Lalmatia! It is likely because this is the kind of camera I used from 1964-66 when I was doing photography for my high school newspaper and yearbook!
Great style of camera! The good ole’ days!
I wish a Happy Bengali New Year to All My Friends in Bangladesh!
I confess I was busy getting my income tax report ready to file to meet tomorrow’s deadline. I guess I do have an automatic 2 month extension, but I’d rather not take it. Anyway, we heard marchers outside on the street, so I headed out and grabbed a rickshaw to catch them on Sir Sayeed Rd. Then I decided since I was out to go to Manik Mia, so I asked the rickshaw wallah to take me there (http://www.thedailystar.net/beta2/news/nation-mingles-with-baishakh-colours/) . The lanes on both sides of the median were painted the whole way from Mirpur Rd. to the circle where Manik Mia splits. It was nice to take a break and see the festive air of the city. The photo of me was taken by the rickshaw wallah!
I hope this is a great year for Bangladesh in spite of the many hartals, demonstrations, etc. recently.

This is a photo of my wife and son who had to leave the crowded or occupied sidewalk for the street. I confess that when we go somewhere they will choose to walk, while I take a rickshaw!

These painters hope today somebody will need some painting done! This is a daily sight at our local market.
