Dangerous

Hi,

As you guessed, we had another warm day in Chiang Rai.  The overnight temps are getting warmer and easier in the mornings.  The only problem is the lack of rain.  The landscapes are getting that brownish look. 

The ‘Jazzy Wednesday’ tune only had one response.  Maybe when you read and hum the bridge you’ll get it.
“When you’re in my arms, and I feel you so close to me.  All my wildest dreams come true.  I need no soft lights to enchant me, if you’d only grant me the right to hold you ever so tight, and to feel in the night __ __ __ __.”  Clue:  This song began life back in 1939 and has been sung through the years by countless jazz and would-be jazz singers. The writer of the music has a name like a sandwich.

This morning we went to Chivit Thamma Da with JaiDee.  We arrived at the same time as our friend John, and he and JaiDee had a very warm greeting in the parking lot.  Today we took what we call a ‘Babysitter Bone’ for JaiDee and this kept him occupied for a long time while we humans talked about current events and discussed health care in Chiang Rai.  We also noted that it’s been rather quiet at most of the places we’ve gone lately.  At Chivit this morning it wasn’t empty, but it wasn’t busy.  The staff even mentioned it to Lisa.  On the way home the traffic was very light.  I joked about back in the ‘old days’ this was how the streets were.  We both laughed, because it was true.  

Today’s photo is from our other hang out.  I haven’t had a chance to ask The Wanderer staff what it is, but it’s pretty amazing looking.


Tomorrow we’re going to Doy Din Dang for coffee and conversation with Tamiko and Somluk, who has a new ceramic exhibit opening in Chiang Mai.  From there we’ll have lunch at Sabroso with one of our little circles of friends. 

Have a Happy Thursday.    Don’t forget take care of yourself.

                             Peace,
                                       Danny
