A great weekend!
We got visited by Eagle's Nest and his lovely wife. Also got a surprise visit from an old friend, known here as Magic (a tragically inactive member so far...
). Magic worked with me in Shanghai, then went to Qatar to work for the Asian Games organization, and is now back and may join the Dong Gang here in Suzhou. Sharp and funny lady. Her knee-length braids, most of which she arranges up behind her head, are definitely the talk of Suzhou tonight. 
Many other friends with us too! The venue was Mario's Pizza, which is worth a trip to Suzhou all by itself.
Here are Eagle's Nest and the Missus... (The extra arm belongs to our old friend Can. I'd'a took his pitcher if I'd'a been thinkin' but I was distracted. See below. And oh yes, Can announced his engagement tonight. Sorry girls!)
...And the incomparable Magic (a lovely girl my poor camerawork doesn't do justice to here. My apologies to all concerned!).
Here's Con and TeePee listening raptly to Eagle, while Gretch dozes over her beer. She can't really handle drink very well.
I think my camera needs adjusting. There can't really be that many grey hairs in this photo.
Minnie and I. Life is good sometimes.
