Wealth

 Hi,

The weather today was just like yesterday.  Well, maybe a little cooler in the early morning, but basically the same pattern.  

The ‘Easy Monday’ song was “Tracks of My Tears” by Smokey Robinson and The Miracles.  ‘Jazzy Wednesday’ is next:  “The falling leaves drift by the window.  The __ __ of red and gold.  I see your lips, the summer kisses, the   sun-burned hands I used to hold.”  Hint:  Another song of a season, but this one leaves stuff to pick up.

This was a different kind of day.  After our coffee on the porch, we went into town to the big market in search of baby socks.  Both dogs are wearing one each, to keep their foot (foots?) dry.  We’ve been going through a bunch of Nitchanan’s little socks.  Not far inside the entrance we use, there is a counter with a huge selection of cute, tiny socks.  Mission accomplished.  

Our conversation with Lisa’s dad Joe was great.  He’s working on a large art piece and keeps us posted on his experiments in his studio.  We’re very grateful for the wonders of Skype.  

JaiDee came upstairs with us after lunch and took a long nap.  He’s really getting used to being with us and staying calm.  TongTong was in the kitchen with Natcha and missed the move upstairs.  This evening, with her cone off, she dashed upstairs when the offer was made.  

Human ingenuity always offers surprises.  Today’s photo is a meat drying device that’s intended to be used for something else.  This way there is no chance of having flies and other bugs on the meat.  I think it’s sliced pork.  Kind of a ‘jerky’.  


Speaking of food, tomorrow we’re celebrating the food portion of Thanksgiving by dining at The Hungry Wolf.  We went last year and it was wonderful.  They pull out all the stops and present a buffet that can stuff even a picky eater like me (555).  We’ll be dining with Cat, our friend Lisa and her parents.  

Feels like a Wacky Wednesday.

                         Peace,
                                   Danny
