Best

Hi,

Today we had no rain in Chiang Rai. There is distant thunder tonight, but no rain yet. It was a perfect day for the yard crew to do their thing. We went into town this morning, and spent the afternoon at home. The dogs missed their running around during the day.

It looks like we have an 'Easy Monday' winner with this tune. If you're still in doubt these lines may help:
"And I think it's gonna be a long, long time 'til touch-down brings me 'round again to find I'm not the man they think I am at home. Oh no, no, no I'm a __ __. __ __ burnin' out his fuse up here alone." Hint: one of this artist's many costumes had to be a space suit.

This morning we went to Big C to do our shopping and have lunch. We also went by 7-11 to pay our power bill. That still cracks me up that we can do that. There seemed to be a lot of traffic in the streets today. On our way into town we noticed that the 'village' on the shore of the river is completely gone. You would never know that there was a bustling beach community there. This evening there were some kids in the river and a few families hanging out.

Last night there was a party at our waterfall. The frogs were out in force, croaking like nothing we'd ever heard before. They made some pretty crazy sounds at times. Add to that the sound of crickets and you had enough noise to make us close the windows. Every morning when I take the dogs out, I check my shoes just to be sure there's no new 'tenant' living inside. It happened once and it was quite a surprise. Boot usually leans them against the house to prevent this from happening. The adventure continues.

Oh yes, Sunday night, as we were leaving the Night Bazaar, a motorbike club came roaring down the main drag. There must have been 10 or 15 bikes, mostly customized with colorful LED lights, and lots of chrome. It was like a rolling bike show.

Tomorrow Boot returns and life around here will get back to some kind of normal. I know BamBam and Daku will be just as happy as us.

Have a Happy Tuesday.

Peace,
Danny
