Empty

Hi,

There were warnings of high temps yesterday, but nothing like what happens in Thailand.  

A few readers recognized the ‘Easy Monday’ song right way.  In case you need to ‘hear’ more, this is verse two:

“Coast to coast, L.A. to Chicago, Western male.  Across the north and south to Key Largo, love for sale.  Face-to-face, each classic case.  We shadow box and double cross, yet need the chase.  A license to love, insurance to hold, melts all your memories and change into gold.  His eyes are like angels but his heart is cold.  No need to ask, he’s a __ __, __ __, __ __, __ __.”  Clue: One might say he’s a slick manipulator, but it doesn’t sing so well (555).

Yesterday morning I went to the eye doc for what should be the last time.  She changed the prescription for one eye, and hopefully, that will be the end of that until we return in the winter. 

After my ‘non appointment’ we traveled  to the office of our acupuncturist, Amir Zagross.  We didn’t have appointments, just a visit and some Chiang Rai items for his office.  We met his older daughter, who is very interested in rockets.  There’s a first, meeting a teen who has a real interest in rockets.  She told us she wants to be a rocket engineer.  Next visit to the States we’re going to sit down and have a meal together.  

Since we moved to Thailand a few traditions have evolved.  One of them is the mandatory breakfast/lunch/dinner with certain people.  It seems that ‘Family’ can get you to do things like that.  Today we had one of those meals with our friends Paul, Joy and Leilani.  We ate at a place in Culver City called KayNDave’s, where they serve Mexican food and it’s good.  Our patio table was perfect for the lunchtime vibe.  I think we’ll add this place to our list.

My brother Denny and his wife Sheila live in Colorado, but they visit Southern California like we do.  This evening we had dinner and as always, it was special.  We really need more than one brief meal to catch up on the happenings in our lives.  

Have a Happy Tuesday.

                         Peace,

                                   Danny
