FOR MEL "UMA" NIE


Every year my cousin Gerhard Buthman sends me a beautiful hand-made calendar. It is always photos from his travels that grace the pages of his calendar and this one, for the month of Oktober 2012 is especially beautiful. I thought that I would scan it and send it off into the internet for my friend Melanie, who is also known to many of us as Uma. She has become a dear, dear friend to me and even though I have never met her in person, I KNOW HER. I truly know her. And she knows me. Happy Trails to you Uma and J. May the Winds carry you to India and grace you with love and safety. I can't wait to see what India has to show you.

  2. Isn't it fun, when we meet people we just know? Love these connections that the internet, and the Universe, makes possible.

  4. Thank you so much Teri for your friendship and well wishes. This is indeed a beautiful photo and from Rajasthan - though we will probably not be in Jaipur (going through in train though!) we will be Udaipur and looking at some similarly astounding palaces, forts and temples I'm sure! I'm looking forward to sharing the India experience with my friends both online and off!
