Weekend at home



My pool had a steady stream of visitors over the last four days, but probably won't see anyone in the pool for the next few days.  Of course no swimming allowed during a thunderstorm.
I'll use the thunderstorms as an excuse to miss the football game in Khon Kaen on Sunday.  The Phu Phan highway is dangerous on most days, worse during a storm.
Am spending the weekend gathering files from three computers and an external hard drive all onto one.  And then of course some time with the new camera.

Playtime for Alvin


Alvin has learned to scream loud (squirrel talk) to remind me that it's time for his daily free time.
This morning he jumped on my shoulder, grabbed my (unlit) cigarette from my mouth, then jumped straight onto the computer shut down key.

Camera on the left was around 600 baht, the pictures were extremely poor quality b&w.

This HD camera I recently bought continues to amaze me.  Bought a 16GB card.
Haven't quite got the hang of all the settings.
Mounted on the motorcycle handle bar, the camera recorded video from 3 pm till 8 pm, used up 9 GB.
