Box

Hi,

The Chiang Rai temps were somewhere around 107F.  The pool looked so inviting, but the air said ‘No’.

The ‘Easy Monday’ song was “Summer In the City” by The Lovin’ Spoonful.  Our ‘Zany Day’ song this week is a crazy one.  “__-__, __-__, make you want to holler hi-de-ho, burns your tummy, don’t you know.  __-__, __-__.”  Clue:  We’re not talkin’ about chili peppers.

On this first day of Songkran we spent the entire time at home.  It was quite pleasant since the neighborhood was quiet.  We were a bit surprised that there was no music from across the river during the day.  There were occasional large fireworks explosions with the first going off at 6:20 this morning.  This evening there is music, but it’s not as loud as the concerts.  It sounds more like a small system by the river.  

The kitchen had a personnel shuffle today. Fone didn’t come to work, which is understandable on Songkran Day, so Natcha and Gong pitched in to make lunch and dinner.  At one point during lunch Gong brought Neetchanan to the house because she wanted to be with her mom, so he ended up doing some cooking and the clean-up.  This evening, after dinner, we had a chance to visit with the baby.  I got some serious staring and Lisa got a really strong smile. 

Today’s photo is an ‘Oldie’.  It’s a ‘wishful thinking’ pic and a reminder that blue skies are coming, eventually.


I suppose we’ll have to venture out tomorrow for supplies, with the windows up of course.  

It’s going to be a Wacky Wednesday.

               Peace,
                         Danny
