Good-by, Shanghai. Next stop, U.S.A. and HOME!

It has been a whirlwind, interesting, educational, and some times crazy . . but WONDERFUL trip of a lifetime.  Special thanks to these two ladies - the absolute BEST!

        

   WHAT A PLEASURE IT WAS TO MEET MANDY MAY, CINDY'S NIECE.  SHE GAVE ME NEW FAITH IN THE NEXT GENERATION.  SHE IS SMART, WELL-MANNERED, AND VERY EFFICIENT.  LOTS OF FUN AND SMILES, TOO!

                                    

                                      I WILL NEVER FORGET HOW MUCH SHE LOVES PRAWNS!

        

CINDY MAY, MY FRIEND FOR OVER FORTY YEARS. THEY SAY THAT YOU KNOW SOMEONE IS A TRUE FRIEND IF YOU ARE APART FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS AND YOU PICK UP RIGHT WHERE YOU LEFT OFF.  CINDY IS THAT KIND OF FRIEND. I AM SO IMPRESSED WITH HER KNOWLEDGE OF THE BUSINESS WORLD, AND THE WORLD IN GENERAL. HER UPBEAT AND POSITIVE SPIRIT IS A BLESSING TO THOSE AROUND HER. I FEEL PRIVILEGED TO CALL HER MY FRIEND.  THANK YOU, CINDY!
