800

I started this blog in August 2006 as I prepared to go on the first trip to Thailand.  In the twelve years since this is the 800 entry. Since that time and I have journeyed to the land of smiles 11 times.  The first trip was three weeks and this year will be 149 days or just over twenty-one weeks. That was three dogs ago -Sparky, Lady, and now Max.  During the years there have been many readers, and I have switched from being a commentary to philosophy or some might say lecture - with more pictures and as time went on,  fewer pictures and more talk.
My plan as I go forward is to be more pictures and stories about the pictures and some pictures of my sketching and maybe even some of my return to poetry.  We shall see..   so this is the last of the life journal and the beginning of New Day....
