HAPPY BIRTHDAY, to my wife, Alice.
Now I am again living with an older woman. I follow close behind her, since I will turn 61 in August!
Here she is having fun with a Nepali lady, likely about all the photos I was taking!

NICE VASE
The footballers gave us this vase as a 40th anniv. gift. I then had it filled with 20 roses. Note two of our grandsons playing football in the right side background.
FOURTIETH ANNIVERSARY COUPLE
We celebrated with our family on the rooftop of a restaurant under a section of tin roof in a torrential downpour! Precious memories. Some amazing lightning and thunder.
FOURTIETH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIION
I wanted to celebrate our 40th anniv. with the footballers I play with on weekends so I had a special meal ordered for them for after our game. They also came with this cake.

ALICE had a lot of fun in the bookstores in Thamel, Kathmandu, Nepal as well as in Pokhara. Here she is selecting some for her grandsons. She spent hours in these stores while I went out and did other shopping.
MOTHER’S DAY
We had a nice breakfast at Austin’s on Mother’s Day. Austin fixed baked oatmeal, and some fruit, served with yogurt.
FRIENDS
Alice finds a friend on a path in Joypara! Maybe she is hunting for the right Bangla word?

Happy Bengali New Year. My wife, Alice wearing red, a tradition for this holiday here in Bangladesh.

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY
This is the 43 Valentine’s Day since we met! We met on September 18, 1966. 1,000 days later Alice became my wife. Those were the longest 1,000 days of my life!! Valentine’s Day 2006 was a very special day for us, since it was the day her Oncologist declared her cancer free, five years following her bout with colon cancer. She is enjoying a dozen red roses I bought her for 160 taka ($2.35 USD). I also bought her a throw for the couch which a group in Mymensingh made. It was parts of two saris sewn together back to back and quilted.
WAITING FOR CNG
After a 2 hour visit in this home the office helper and her daughter went with us out to the street where we hailed a CNG for our trip home. This is very typical of the Bengali hospitality. They don’t just say good-bye at the door, but walk you to the elevator, street etc. to make sure your on the way. They feel it is their duty as your hosts. The Bengali people are very hospitable people. They were very appreciative that we came to visit in their home and enjoy a meal.
