Back in Seattle with freezing temps and a foot of snow and ice on the ground. Laos seems like a dream.

Speaking of Lao, I expect you are around Saravane or Attepau about now? I’m curious about any new routes, new discoveries on this trip, and how it went; write when you get a moment.

Anyway, I wanted to thank you again, Digby, for delivering one of the great adventures of my life — for leading the way and making it happen.

And I especially appreciate that you had the perseverance, guts, courage, drive and curiosity to push us forward as individuals and as a team so that we had the experience we did, and we didn’t end up settling for some lesser experience.
