I said hold still

All quiet on the Sakon Nakhon Waterfront


Water level seems higher than average for this time of the year, even though the rainy season hasn't been all that strong.

All boats seem freshly painted, all the derelicts are gone

The longboat racetrack has yet to be cleared of vegetation.  Clean up should begin soon

Toa Ngoi celebrations


Sakon Nakhon

Social Interaction is high in Thai education, something I never experienced in my school years. We had assemblies in the auditorium


Sakon Nakhon

40% loss of interest by India - 96% increase from Denmark, this year compared to 2014


Of course I look at the blog statistics on a daily basis.  I look at the peaks to see what sparked interest.  It's still preseason, high season ahead.

Warmer for this time of year

Scattered showers, warmer than normal temperatures, next rainstorm likely as weekend approaches

Some of my favorites on Facebook


Some humor from my brother. Sometimes, you just have to laugh, right?~Gene

See what else you're missing
Sakon Nakhon

Simply explained its a chicken beer enema

It's called Beer Can Chicken, or  Beer Butt Chicken... 
... the can of beer goes in the chicken butt, after you have drunk some off the top.  Spices are added to the remaining beer.  Simply explained its a chicken beer enema


In accordance with Thai law, beer is served to the chicken after 5 pm 
It's a speciality of Colin's 'My House' restaurant, back by popular demand yesterday.  
I was pleasantly stuffed in a pleasant laid back atmosphere.

Sakon Nakhon FC 2015 is History

The season brought plenty thrill and excitement, yet wins were elusive.   

Sakon Nakhon had it's best year in 2010.   
Eight in a league of  16.
2015  -  16th of 18 teams.   
One can only pray for a brighter tomorrow.
