Doubts

Hi,

A bunch of dark clouds messed with the sun today. Chiang Rai has been dry for a couple of days, so it made sense that we were due for more rain. We spent most of the day here on the compound. Daku went to the doctor, Lisa taught ballet, and I talked to friends in America.

It was nice to hear from so many of you. 'Easy Monday' was clearly easy for some. Today's clues may be of some help.
"When they said you was high classed, well, that was just a lie. (repeat) You ain't never caught a rabbit...." Clues: The song it clearly a blues. The singer who made it famous was known as 'The King' ('Thank you very much'). It was written by a team who had tons of hits in the 50s and 60s. They originally wrote it for a woman whose 'first name' was 'Big'. That oughta hold you 'til tomorrow.

There are many little weather systems here in Chiang Rai. For example, today Lisa left for ballet in the late afternoon. A few minutes after she left, she called me to say that it had rained on the other side of the bridge near our house. So much rain that an intersection by the hospital was flooded. Not long after that there was a brief shower at the house and then it was gone.

Daku had to go to the vet today. We have learned that Golden Retrievers, at least here in Thailand, are susceptible to skin problems from insect bites. This time we asked if he could just treat it locally, without all the pills and the answer was 'yes'. He's doing much better as a result. He's not lethargic like before, and we all like that better.

Have a Happy Tuesday.

Peace,
Danny
