Good stuff.

I and my family were the guests of the Vang clan for their family picnic. They are one of the larger tribes of Hmong who were settled in this country. The food, which, I neglected to get photos of, is spectacular, heavily influenced by Tai cuisine, since most Hmong spent time in Tai refugee camps.

Everyone is welcome in the Vang family.



From the left, representatives of Liberia, Ethiopia, India, USA, Colombia, Laos, and another American. I convinced the pretty Colombian to marry me, 14 years ago.


Best,
