Postcard weather, that’s what I call it. The sky was clear and the air was warmish. All the the shades of green were glistening in the sunshine. Sounds like a pretty mushy day, right? Seriously, it was great. More please.
The ‘Jazzy Wednesday’ tune was “Something Cool”, originally recorded by June Christy. Here’s a clip of her singing it live https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GkUM4jE-ZE That brings us to ‘Old School Friday’. “__, if you will, please send a little girl for me to thrill. A girl who wants my kisses and my arms, a girl with all the charms of you. __, make her fair, a lovely girl with sunlight in her hair, and take the brightest stars up in the skies and place them in her eyes for me.” Hint: Should be easy. If you remember the bridge, then you got this. The title is the name of a ‘public figure’. Commentary: File this one under ‘Songs that couldn’t be written today’. It’s from 1959.
This morning’s adventure began with a visit to Chivit Thamma Da. The three of us (Lisa, JaiDee and me) arrived to see a full parking lot. That’s how beautiful the morning was. We got our usual table after the usual staff greeting at the front door and more along the way. Not only did JaiDee get to see some of his fans, but his friend Nam Kok was there also. After our relaxing riverside snack we drove north to the village of Ban Du for a post-office stop. Lisa went inside and JaiDee and I sat in the van and I explained what she was doing. He seemed interested (555). The next stop had him very interested. When we pulled into the lot at Browney’s Pet World, I think he knew where he was. He got more love from his good friend, the manager, and one of the staff that always gives him a snack. On our way home we stopped at the pharmacy. JaiDee and I sat outside and watched a local dog checking things out on the sidewalk. It was a busy morning.
Today’s photo was taken at Gallery 333 in River City, Bangkok, by a member of the support staff for the exhibit Lisa’s work appeared in. The initial exhibit was moved to Gallery 333 for a month run. Here, on the back wall are all four of Lisa’s works. There were 21 artists in the exhibition.
Last but not least, Monday morning we will go on one of our coolest adventures. We will meet with Cat and our attorney in a court where she will become our adopted daughter. For the last seven years she has been like a daughter. When we realized a few years ago that she thought of us as her parents, we started thinking about it. This is, of course, the short version, but for the three of us it makes sense. Anyway, I wanted to share this happy event with you.
Have a Wonderful WeekEnd. Stay calm and breathe.
Peace,
Danny
