The fall weather is a reminder of why I love living and working in an area that has all four seasons. It's a little crisp. But perfect.
Last night was the Chinese "Moon Festival" and since I am becoming Chinese, we celebrated! We had a small gathering at our home with moon cakes, wine, tea, and friends. Zheng's and my friends got to meet Aying.
Syracuse Opera did a run-out to Auburn, NY to perform at a rest home. The drive took us through Skaneatales, NY, a lovely village by the lake. (See the picture). We are back in Auburn tonight for a full performance of the Resident Artist show, "9 Operas in 90 Minutes."
Speaking of Aying, Zheng's mother, she arrived safely in Chicago non-stop from Beijing. Zheng went to Chicago to pick her up, and then they took an overnight train to Rochester. I saw them on Monday when I went home for my day off. When I've been home, we've enjoyed good visits and meals together.
Also, Zheng has truly been "putting on the dog" for his mama, so some of the feasts have been epic. We've also been taking full advantage of the generous gifts from our bridal shower.
