People

Layes of clothing @ 100 Degrees

Songkran Splash

Hi,

The weather is in a definite pattern. Warm nights and mornings, hot mid-day, hot and humid with afternoon clouds, and back to warm night. Today we hid from it as much as possible.

So, 'Easy Monday' song was "Everyday People" by Sly & The Family Stone. Time once again to savor the lower frequencies of 'Bad Ass Bass'. "Got a good reason, for taking the easy way out. (repeat) She was a __ __, one way ticket, yeah! It took me so long to find out, and I found out." Hint: Really, this should be an 'Easy Monday' song. If it weren't for the bass line, well.

The dogs aren't getting to spend as much time running in the mornings since it's so warm. BamBam will run regardless of the temperature, but Daku has a sense about these things. When it starts to get hot he just won't run. Of course, he's a bigger dog with a thicker coat and he has his priorities. Today they had to stay in all day because the yard crew arrived around nine, without notice. Right behind them was the pool guy. He only takes about an hour, the crew was here all day.

It is still baffling how people can work in the blazing sun, in high temperatures (100 F) wearing layers of clothing. I've heard all the theories about insulation blah blah, but it was hot out there today and three layers just takes my mind to another place.

Our landscape guy, Khun Kek, got us some more big fan palm type things for behind the waterfall. In a few years they'll be a great wall for the corner of the yard. We also had him plant 5 bougainvillea that we bought last week. He gave us some little cakes as a Songkran gift.

Boot is going to her home town of Rayong on Sunday to visit her family. She'll return with her cousin, who will live here with Boot and help with the house. It will be an adventure for her and for us. Once again, we will have to take care of ourselves. (555)

Time for Wacky Wednesday.

Peace,
Danny
