Don’t YOU carry your camera to your dentist’s office? Well, you would if the temps were minus (MINUS!!!) 12 degrees and you were going to be in the chair for awhile for a cleaning and check up. Yup, don’t want to freeze the camera, now do we?

So, in it went with me. And, as I hung up my jacket I looked through the window into the entry way and noticed the perfect shot – the shadow of Dr. Hu’s door shining on his entry way wall.

I really like going to my dentist – he is a local “boy” done good. He went away to dental school and returned to set up his practice. He was only 24 when he became a dentist!!!

Now at 33 he is moving up to the next phase of his life . . . marriage Chinese style. He is leaving for Taiwan tomorrow to pick up his bride and his parents. They’ve been over there for about a month getting the plans for the weddings (yes, that is plural) all taken care of; you see – there will be a wedding here in America and then a few months down the road, a very formal wedding in Taiwan. All the bells and whistles.

He is so cute when he talks about his bride. He misses her terribly and is so ready to go pick her up. 😉
