I'm taking an educated guess here: Dedication of ...

UPDATE :: The parade was at 1 pm, a most unusual time for a parade
If there was a parade today, I missed it.  Obviously I was misinformed.  I did see a float heading out of town later in the afternoon. Did see three different VIP convoys head toward the lake.  Cruised along the waterfront.  Parking was at a premium. Security at a maximum.   
I'm taking an educated guess here:  Dedication of the new wing of the Sakon Nakhon Hospital.

Sakon Wax Candle parade


Taking an educated guess here. Around 5 pm.   
There's a chance that the rain will cease for the parade.

Clean the bathroom with toothpaste

I'd read about it, but never considered it.

My bathroom was getting to look pretty dirty.  Black grout, soap scum on tiles and mirrors. Finally tried some toothpaste with my scrubber.  Grout is white, tiles and mirrors are clean.  Toilet looks clean.  The whole bathroom smells fresh.
Didn't even have to scrub very hard

Maybe it's the wrong approach

Teaching responsible drinking habits would probably be a better solution

Possession of E-cigarettes is illegal. in Thailand


I doubt the hat will be a big seller

Experience a temple on Asalha Puja Day

Best parking at Wat Phra That Choeng Chum is the waterfront park at the rear of the temple
Sakon Nakhon

Expect a rainshower or more; Daily: Likely heavy

The weather from the east and northeast seems to be winning for the moment. 

Nothing nasty out there in the pacific, no hurricanes, no cyclones, no tropical storms.
Just plenty rain. Some cool temperatures.
