Tarps from the previous fair (ended yesterday), were left in place at Ming Muang field.
Most vendors had vacated, a few decided to stay for the next event.

 Asked the kid if he knew what the writing on his t-shirt meant.

No idea.

He recognized the word Beer.



So what do ma and pa think of your new shirt?




Keeping cool

SAKONNAKHON-LIVE  team eliminated from Futsal competition.


It all started out great, four wins.  
Then some players disappeared.  The team wasn't the same with replacements.
The last game was against a Mukdahan 'PRO' team.  They were really good. 

Was a bit puzzled by the signs on their hired van


What the hell is number 6???

    This cold spell ends Sunday

    Told ya'll so ... said five day cooling trend


     Heard a few complaints about the cooler temperatures from both Farang and Thai.
    Saw a number of Thais wearing 'parkas,' 
    they might have been  on their way to a polar region.
    It was getting a bit chilly early last night. I wore three layers, two t-shirts and a lined fleece jacket.


    Possible (slight) chance of rain.  If it happens, most likely just around Sakon F.C. game time, Sunday. Most of the rain clouds may dissipate before they reach this area.
    Humidity rising...  ...and so will the temperatures.  
    Next week: five days of songkran type weather... HOT

    Sakon F.C. hosts Nong Kai F.C. game start time moved ahead to 4 pm.

    Probably want to save on the electric bill, or give Nong Kai staff and players an earlier start home on their three hour drive
