One night one of the young doctors took us to dinner at a Chinese restaurant near the hospital. She was being so kind. We asked her to share the food with us, but she would only eat what she could see we didn't like. During our meal there were 4 teenage girls sitting in the corner staring at us and giggling. (We are the only Caucasians for miles around. Whenever we go out everyone stares at us! They don't just glance, they stare for a long time!) The girls were workers at the restaurant and were organizing the chopsticks. Once we were finished eating, Lon walked right over to their table, pulled up a chair, sat down and began organizing chopsticks with them! This caused the girls to break into laughter! They couldn't believe that he would actually come and sit with them. The doctor frantically plugged words into her English conversion calculator and finally said, "Your husband has humor!" I had to agree with her! As we walked back to the hospital she grabbed my arm and said, "I like you, you are good." I think she had other feelings about Lon - he was beyond her control!
