Tomorrow

Hi,

I suppose this is getting monotonous, but the weather was the same today as yesterday.  If you didn’t see that, it was ‘beautiful’, which is apparently not a word used very often to describe the weather.  Oh well.

This week’s ‘Easy Monday’ song was “Stayin’ Alive” by The Bee Gees.  Time for a ‘Middle Song’, since they didn’t have any ‘Zany’ tunes to choose from.  “I know your eyes in the morning sun, I feel you touch me in the pouring rain.  And the moment that you wander far from me, I wanna feel you in my arms again.  And you come to me on a summer breeze, keep me warm in your love then you softly leave.  And it’s me you need to show __ __ __ __ __.”  Hint:  Singer needing to know the depth of devotion.

Little Mr. JaiDee woke up at 4am today.  He was kind enough to wait until 5am to insist on having breakfast, but Lisa was awake and the day had begun.  Today he had a long nap, so we’re hoping we don’t get a repeat performance.

We did The Wanderer this morning and then talked to Lisa's dad, Joe.  As we get closer to the California visit, various activities are being confirmed.  We also had a philosophical discussion about the purpose of the human body.  The question was posed to Joe during a massage.  

Before lunch we drove up to ArtBridge so Lisa could register for the annual Artist Exhibition that opens in December.  There are some new exhibits in the galleries that we have not seen.  Hmm, so much art, so little time.

In our travels we pulled up next to the motorbike in the photo below.  This method of hauling produce probably started with humans, then donkeys or horses and now it’s motorbikes.  Those are bananas in the baskets.

The activities continue across the river at the fairgrounds.  We took JaiDee for his evening walk and even though it was early, there were a lot of young people going to the grounds.  Later, Cat and her boyfriend came over.  They had been to the Loy Krathong festival and brought Lisa one of her favorite Thai treats.  She told us that this year the food is more expensive because of an increase in booth rental costs.  When I asked her if it was loud, her answer was a very definite ‘Yes’.  We have not seen many lanterns in the sky, which is a good thing.  I remember in the past, that we’d find the remains of burnt out lanterns in our yard and on the roof.  In Chiang Mai, where they still have a separate Lantern Festival, they stopped all air traffic between certain hours in order to avoid problems with planes hitting the lanterns.  

Feels like a Wacky Wednesday.

                     Peace,
