I recieved the following email this morning from an ex-pat I met in Tha Khaek, Laos. I was so touched and surprised; I am blessed with meeting such caring folk. It also reminded me of the wonderful times I had and the lovely folks that crossed my path, and I am really looking forward to bouncing around on my own again.

Hi Sara -

Remember me?  I’m the American guy with the small restaurant in Thakhek.  I think about you often and wonder where you are and what you ae doing.  Are you on the Thai/Myanmar border - or back in Buffalo?

I hope you are well and happy - and making this world a better place to live in.

Be careful it’s a big world out there.  Most of the people are wonderful, but there’s
always that small percentage that aren’t …

Here’s a picture to remember us by.
