Cha mate

“Cha” in Mandarin Chinese means “tea”. Same in Japanese. So “Cha mate” is really “tea mate”.

This is a friend’s “tea mate”.

Good luck is on my back

The Chinese character on the bag, Fu, means “good luck”. In China, it is common to see the Fu character in spring, esp. during the Chinese New Year.

Made a short visit to Shenandoah National Park two weeks ago. It is the 21st national park I have been to. Still on track to visit all the 58 national parks in 10 years.
