Sanbao

Jesse is in China. She is doing a ceramics residency at Sanbao - Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province. I did not link that, but if you want to see more photos of the area, Google Sanbao. She does ceramics by day along with some university lectures and visits from famous ceramic people from all over the world. At night, she often dines or parties with these people. The owner/director of Sanbao, Jackson Li, has taken Jesse and other art folk on some interesting tours. When Jesse wanted to see the Yellow Mountains, Jackson sent his assistant to hike with her. Jesse said that he was worried about her lack of phone reception if anything were to happen to her. He said he was like her Chinese mother. 

There is about a 13 hour time difference from China to Oklahoma. Jesse and I usually Skype, that being the best way to communicate with her since China does not do Google, early in my morning when she is finished with her day. Sometimes we Skype at the end of my day when she is just getting up in the morning. She sent the above photo sometime while in the Yellow Mountains yesterday.  I woke up to this amazing photo, but will not get the details of the trip until a bit later before she goes to bed - and then only if she has wifi. 

I know she is having a grand time. Jesse always does. It is a bit stressful for me, but I'm okay with it all. Jesse lives her life and is happy.
