The sun rose on our last full day in Cottage Grove today. After the closing, we ate lunch on the kitchen floor of our very own house.

Congratulations on breaking bread in your new house. That's what makes it a home, instantly.

I used to build houses, all kinds. I remember twenty years ago a large family of recent chinese extraction moved into one very modest home in the shadow of a 350 foot television tower. He spoke no english. He carried in a 100 pound bag of rice. He weighed about 99 pounds himself. I was told it was a sort of ceremony, signifying they would never go hungry, or have bad luck.

May you never go hungry, or have bad luck.
