My brother Ma Rong and his wife Qi Ran sent me a winter coat from Xinji:

Leather and fur...the leather cuts the wind, period. The fur lining is toasty warm, even in our northern Alberta weather. I told my brother that wearing the coat was like being hugged, all day.

Thanks, all. I was super pleased to get the coat, and really appreciate all your very kind comments.

I think Codguy's gift is terrific, too. And it was exceptionally kind of someone to help Christopher ameliorate his Rolex shortage.

That's a fine-ass coat, Ron.
