John Part 2
And they began chatting….
Chuck and John struck up a conversation. He found out thet John was 96 years old – or young depending on your perspective. He had lived in Tahoe all his life. He served on the USS Hornet. He had been a pilot. His wife was at home. Once a day he comes down to the bridge with his dog to watch the crazy rafters as they make their way down the Truckee River.

John Part 1
There is a bridge that crosses the Truckee River in North Tahoe. And each summer thousands of people flock to this river to spend the afternoon rafting. Having done this myself, I can attest to how fun it can be. The bridge is strictly off limits, but on this particular day, one of the owners was out on the bridge and nicely agreed to let me take some photos from it.

Julia Child
August 15, 2012 marked what would have been Julia Child’s 100th Birthday…. and Mimi’s 98th. Often when I tell people about Project Mimi, they respond by likening it to the movie Julia and Julia. A compliment I am sure, but that book and movie seemed more about the cooking and the food. Sure, in PM the food is important, but the real message is about sharing. Food is a part of that, time as well, but mostly its about friends and family. I love my PM crew and they have made this summer a really great memory. One can’t, however, not recognize some of the cosmic coincidences of it all when Julia and Mimi share the same birthday.
And one last thing… In the spirit of Mimi, and Julia too, PM is about continuing to engage.. to be vital and to possess that joie de vivre… love of life…. that I know Mimi has, and I think Julia had.
