Lhasa! Does it feel like you're in a divine kind of dream, or does this amazing trip seem ultra real ? Is it like home in a sense ? Cannot wait to hear your stories, see pictures and sense your new depths and understandings. Hopefully, there will be words for those of us who must travel vicariously through your adventures. You are missed and envied, even though our bathroom is clean and easy to use. Love to your newest world and the old ones, Paula

Hi Gaylinn. Tell Rick his audio recording is amazing. I can't believe technology today and good for him for finding a way to beat the system and post something anyway. Fall is in the air. It is so beautiful here. You will love the cool temps and changing colors. I'm home making eggplant Parmesan and zucchini soup for Papa Arun who is coming over for dinner Sunday. I'm thinking of you and the group as you discover more and more and go deeper and deeper. Life is stillness. Love Sunny

spent the morning skyping with eva and ed. He was playing on the rocking horse that dad and mom made for him. He loves it. He also likes to read books and buld blocks. It was nice to see him. I gues it is frustrating to not be able to hold and hug him....but in time.... so, you are the adventureer and I love the posts.

Cold here. I played a gig at Water St., participated in a Zydeco jam in Buffalo, and actually got the tapes from Doug! In America album is slated for mastering in late September, and will be released this year! I trust the food there is palpable. Give Peter and Rick a hug from me. Om Mani Pad-me Hung, Frank

I guess this is the "peak" part of your trip, pun intended :). Fall is here (high: 60), and so are the Lasker awards, including one to Art Horwich a resident with me, in Pediatrics. The AABB News came out with the immunomodulation article and it did show the fingerprints of our old friend Jim, but it was pretty much as it was before, minus my tribute to Simone Glynn for some reason. I am well, and I'm guessing the boys are too, but they haven't called.:) I hope you are all well. Lov
