Udon Thani FC 2Sakon Nakhon FC 1

The Udon stadium was filled to near capacity. Rain before the game finally subsided at about 10 minutes into the game.
The Udon team seemed to have less experience on a waterlogged field, a fact which worked in favour of the visitors. On a dry field the score may have been much more lopsided.

A very friendly atmosphere and mostly fast paced action made for a pleasant evening (after the rain stopped)

Double Rainbow

There are many magical tales about the rainbow. The pot of gold tale is probably the most known.
There's a whole list of mystic meanings at 'What's your sign'.  I wont bother repeating them all here.

Leave it to the weatherman to take away all the mysticism and explain the facts of refraction, the sun in your back and the rain ahead of you.

Sakon Nakhon Picture Memories

You know Hans,you have made a lot of folks very happy with all the photos you have taken.
I for one would like to say thank you very much.

I really have to thank all the many friends who created the moments worth photographing and remembering.  Thanks for the many invites.
There are 1326 Albums 

Some lost pictures found

Computer just came back from repair.  New motherboard and new hard drive.
I have the old hard drive connected externally and am in the process of restoring some 2014 pictures, videos, and my music collection.


All media prior to 2014 has been backed up twice.
That's me on my Vespa in 1975 heading south on (I-5)Interstate 5 in Seattle. Had to duck down to avoid the headwind which would slow me down to below the minimum speed limit of 40mph on the interstate. Ducked down I could do 45mph and even 50mph traveling down hill

An article by Alan Morison, well worth reading.
The before and after pictures are well worth a look.
Personally I preferred the beach chairs and the beach services being offered before the cleanup
