Then and Now

Chaffee Crossing

August 2009
March 2011
In February, the last of the Chaffee chimneys were demolished.
The chimneys were the last physical reminders of the WW2 barracks that survived the fire of  '08.
Last week, while touring the UAFS Student Union, we saw a contest-winning photo of the Chaffee chimneys.
We drive past Chaffee Crossing everyday, and Davis immediately was drawn to the photo.
Today, the historic piece of land is an empty, barren expanse.

欢乐中国的明天!

How about having Chinese food tomorrow?      Great! December 13th is Chinese Tomorrow! What is Chinese Tomorrow? When families get together for Chinese food and celebrate everything that is 'put-off' until tomorrow.   Here are a few rules: Everyone wears black (the actual day 'tomorrow' is dark & never sees a sunrise) Celebrate things that are put-off until tomorrow (find joy in those normally unpleasant procrastinations) Choose just one person to open a single fortune cookie (everyone else must wait until tomorrow ) Blog about it (post the fortune's lucky numbers as the title) Enjoy the great food! (Chinese food buffets are the best!)  欢乐中国的明天!

Happy New Year!
