Happy holi, though I am late.

Is that Usha in the second pic? Is Namit in any one of the photos? Can't see him or can't recognize him.
I used to love Holi in India. Haven't played for decades. Wish I was there with you guys.

Ruchira, this is from 2005 during our long India sojourn (seems like ages ago). The answers to your questions are yes and yes. I am in the right column further down. I have never played Holi in the US (unless doing so vicariously through my parents in India counts) -- for me the context is really important and it is just not the same in the SF Bay Area.
