Hi,
Guess what? Another day without rain. Today we came so close. Dark clouds, heavy breeze, moisture in the air and then it all blew away. I’m sure the yard crew appreciated the absence of rain.
The ‘Easy Monday’ song is apparently easy. Lots of mail on this one. Just in case you ‘almost’ remember, here’s more. “I’ll give you all I got to give if you say you’ll love me too. I may not have a lot to give, but what I got I’ll give to you. I don’t care too much for money, money __ __ __ __. __ __ __ __, everybody tells me so. __ __ __ __, no no no, noooo.” Hint: Seriously?
This morning the yard crew arrived while we were exercising Daku. They were a little early, but the reason was made clear. There were only four people working today. Usually there are seven or eight, including two men. Today it was Khun Pim and three women. Pim mowed the lawns with the weed-wacker machine and did a better job than the guys. They actually managed to complete the job in record time.
While the yard crew was working, we went into town with the last list before take-off. We made sure to stop at Browney’s after our Makro run, so Daku will have plenty of treats while we’re gone. Rolling down the highway we stopped for gas at a station we rarely frequent. Blue noticed a very clever sign and I took some photos.
This afternoon we had a ‘House meeting’ with Natcha and Pon, her niece who has been helping her. Cat served as interpreter and we discussed what needed to be done while we’re gone. Keeping The Big Brown House running smoothly takes coordinated effort. The meeting was a big success and everyone is happy. More important, we can leave without feeling like something won’t get done. Of course, Daku won’t be happy for the first day, but he really is a dog.
This will be the last message from Thailand for two weeks. Tomorrow’s post will be sent from Taipei during our layover.
Have a Happy Tuesday.
Peace,
Danny
