And then the rains came

Yesterday trucks were passing by like a nonstop convoy.

Nearby they are raising land for housing, and delivering the sand layer for road construction.

Hopefully there will be a grader leveling out and compacting the sand soon.

For now the road is closed for car traffic.

Of course someone will have to dig out the drain before the rain.

And then the rains came

Sakon Nakhon's fishy sighting

	It could be one like that one What makes me suspicious: Hundreds of people gather as a fish performs near them. Let's say it's a fish. Probably a recent import.
	The fact that the animal is 'not shy around humans' adds to my suspicions Claims that it is a native to the lake seem unlikely: there'd be more than one. You know, relatives, mother-in-law.
