Leaving on a Jet Plane

Tomorrow afternoon, I'll begin making my way to London, Mumbai and Bangalore as part of the journey to Bylakuppe, a Tibetan settlement in southern India. For two weeks, I'll be interviewing Tibetan elders there for The Tibet Oral History Project.

Oh, the things that will find me!

Here's my beloved family (taken this morning on our front stoop, on the occasion of Delilah's last day of 2nd grade): Curtis, our daughters Madeleine and Delilah, my parents Andrea and Bill, and of course the dog, Lola.

I look forward to leaving, and just as much to returning.
