Last night

This is a first for me in Thailand, a storm has arrived at such a force as to knock out the power in the guest house. Actually it is very widespread....and as far as I can see it is dark. I was in the middle of a brad Pitt moving about ta bet...now I will never know the ending. It is 7:15 and I suspect the power will be off until morning. I have three flares and my computer is charged for many hours...; and before the beer gets warm... it is time to take one.
This was a good day..class was good, acu was good, lunch was good, chocolate cake was very good and not the storm is very nice. Cool....
I went down to the lobby to get a beer and see what was happening...another journey on the ship of fools. The local Thai men were moving about being busy...mopping up and cleaning up and lighting candles.
Junior said the power will be on in an hours... but an hour in Thai time is any place between now and then. I will meditate, get organized for tomorrow and read.
The lobby was an interesting place. The Thai's walking back and forth using their phones in a lobby bright enough to see in. the Chinese playing a card came, two English speaking fellows have a deep conversation about the corruption in USA chemical companies....so same same but different. I am in 
my room now and will set my clock for meditation... and then read... and all is well  

before the police action I did take some pictures

Love the colors! It's so nice to see fresh produce - ours is all coming from other places and looking very shopworn by the time it gets to the markets. It was 61 degrees yesterday, 21 degrees and snowing today! Enjoy the warm!

Eleventh Day

 Wow, it is easy to slip into a similar pattern to what I had at home. I produced a plan to change many things - delete more emails, eat hea...
