WEDDINGS OF THE WEST COAST: COUGTOUR 2009

I have finally sorted, scheduled, and generally attained domination over the few months remaining before my next departure for China. I've shared my plans with many of you, but I publish it here in the hopes that it may serve as reminder and reference. Some dates are approximations, however, if you are one of the 4 couples whose weddings I am attending in Aug/Sept, be assured that I will be there.

Present day - July 31st = Bloomington, Indiana

July 31st - August 2nd = Portland, Oregon

August 2nd - August 20th = Seattle, Washington

Many of you will be relieved to hear that I will not, as originally planned, be traveling to North Korea during my stay in China, though I may take a little trip to Vietnam and/or Taiwan and I'll be traveling around the country as much as possible for research/volunteer work. But most of the time, I'll probably be right here:

Come and visit, won't you?
