WaiMing and Janice were in the San
Francisco Bay Area accompanying their son to kick-off his 8-week summer
program at Stanford University. It was a surprise visit for KellyC when
he picked up WaiMing's phone call
on that Sunday morning.
WaiMing and Janice showed up at KellyC's door step within an hour after
the telephone call. They enjoyed
the conversation over a "last-minute" light lunch, catching up with
things and family matters since their
previous gathering in Portland, OR (Christmas 2004). Due to
KellyC's prior afternoon appointment, their
mid-day gathering ended before 2pm as KellyC was late to his
appointment in the city. The Li's showed
up at KellyC's place again in the evening to continue where they left
off several hours earlier over
dinner. Too bad their son could not join as he was not allowed to leave
the Stanford campus without
written consent from the school, per program rules and restrictions.
It was until almost mid-night before the Li's waved goodbye, and
promised they would communicate
prior to leaving Southern California on their August trip to the SF Bay
Area.
