Dangerous

Hi,

If hot weather is your thing, then we had a great weekend.  Add a big dose of humidity and you’d be in heaven.  There were clouds but no rain.  The water in the pool got warmer, that should tell you something (555).

The ‘Old School Friday’ song was “Will You Love Me Tomorrow” by The Shirelles.  Time for ‘Easy Monday’:
“He came from somewhere back in her long ago, the sentimental fool don’t see, tryin’ hard to recreate what had yet to be created, once in her life.  She musters a smile for his nostalgic tale, never coming near what he wanted to say, only to realize it never really was.  She had a place in his life.  He never made her think twice.  As he rises to her apology anybody else would surely know.  He’s watching her go.  But __ __ __ __ he sees….”  Hint:  Kind of a love story that went wrong.

Over the weekend we took JaiDee to the same walking circuit we use in the evenings.  In the morning it’s totally empty.  We end up walking longer than when we go to the little park with the big trees.  Today’s photos show the playground area on a quiet morning, and in the early evening.



We spent our weekend ‘coffee mornings’ at The Wanderer.  JaiDee has friends there, not as many as at Chivit Thamma Da, but he gets plenty of attention.  There is something about the woods in the morning that just feels right.  We got a message from our friend John, wondering if it was time to share a ‘bowl of ice’ again.  We’ll meet him at The Wanderer for ice and coffee (555).

Today we went to Bangkok Hospital for some follow-up appointment for Lisa.  While waiting, we saw our good friend Katie and her seven year old twins, Taeyo and Jaiya.  They told us about their pet named ‘Dog’.  Dog is, in reality, a chicken who thinks and acts like a dog.  He follows them around the house, sits with them while they do homework, and will jump up to take a treat from their fingers.  They put him outside but he always manages to get back into the house.  The girls have many stories to tell about ‘Dog’.  It really helped pass the time while waiting.

This evening we went on the walk, but in the opposite direction than usual.  Normally we walk against the major flow of traffic because then JaiDee is not trying to follow/chase people.  It also is good because he has more encounters with people.  Going the other way was motivated by the desire to encounter less dogs.  JaiDee was a not happy about the change of direction and pulled a lot.  Maybe he can get used to it.  It certainly took some of the stress off of the walk.  

Have a Great Week.

                            Peace,
                                      Danny
