Morning motorcycle cruise

If you head out of Sakon Nakhon town south where ITU ends and 3062 begins, there's some bridge work in process The back road  to Branch 63 is full of potholes Back in town there's a new motorcycle sales shop.  I'm interested in buying a three wheeler. Rain Festival not much going on there. Probably waiting for the equipment to arrive Banners in town may need some additional fasteing. Did not see any sprinklers installed.  It's a maybee, maybee not, wait and see Local temples are preparing for the parade April 13, starts at 1 pm.

Extra road checks and thunderstorms for the holidays

Bang Fai in Waritchaphum: Unfortunately I missed the pre event publicity, if there was any. Would have gladly stayed in a hotel there for a few days Extra road checks have been set up throughout the area in an effort to curb drunk driving over the holidays Climbed the mountain (491 steps) three times.

A ploy I have seen used successfully quite often is to get the Sakon goalkeeper to come away from the immediate goal, leaving the goal exposed. Sakon Nakhon remains in tenth place in a league of 14.  One can only hope that there are better days ahead.  Nex game Wed 18 April Toyota Cup Sakon FC hosts Rayong FC

Cold day in April

It's a bit unusual to be this chilly in April and hard to believe that the overnight temperature will climb to 26 within four days.  This morning I've unpacked my heater to get the chill out and may need it again tonight.   High temperature yesterday was 23 and my pool was occupied for three different shifts.
