It was my sis who spotted this first heart of the weekend. She’s a regular contributor to the Chain-Link Heart Project, so of course she kept her eyes peeled for hearts."

• The Link: "I call this one, 'The heart seeker in Calistoga.' Here is Amy Christensen: my BFF, wombmate, soulmate. Being my wombmate, I thought of Lorenzo and H. being wombmates too. I guess that goes for any sibling who follows Lorenzo really. Amy found these hearts that were bent into their shape from old metal rings of wine barrels. How brilliant, right? We were in wine country after all, so it was nice to see the metal rings be repurposed into hearts. The woman who was selling them was originally from Santiago, Chile. Yes, a Chilean. How wondrous the Universe works."

Anyway it reminded me that I hadn't yet sent you this photo I took in Laos. The heart (which also might have been an actual sole to a shoe and not just an imprint) was in a small village just outside Luang Prubang, Laos where we stayed. It is a beautiful small city, all of which is a World Heritage site—I recommend it highly!!!! The main purpose of the trip, though, was to visit Siem Reap, Cambodia and our Sara LaBoskey school there—that was really magical for all of us."
