Even though I once again received tickets for grandstand seating, I was a bit under the weather and had to forgo the final festivities. Ace photographer Joey (AKA jozaa) took these great photo's

Rice harvest season is underway. Labor intensive, it temporarily halts other work not related to agriculture. My home improvement work is temporarily suspended.
M recently delivered three envelopes from SBAC. Two contained passes to the parade grandstands
A third envelope contained an apparent form letter. Obviously composed by a Thai English Teacher, I call it Tinglish, a bit difficult to read English. The basic jest of the letter, 200 students from S-BAC will participate in the parade.
Not until I re-read the letter three days later did I notice that it was an invite for financial support. Sorry folks, with less than ten day notice I can only come up with Bt 4,000. If I would have gotten more advance notice I could have donated more. Fixed income here.
