Football survives

I must admit, we had momentarily stopped at a traffic light. I'm sure she was probably looking for directions
It's a great first step. Have not seen anything from TAT Nakhon Phanom.  This 'Official' has been posting to YouTube for three months. The video does need a narration or additional subtitles.
Saw this "busart" at a rest stop on the way to Sisaket Sakon FC and Sisaket tied.  A good thing. If Sakon Nakhon  would have lost this game, the team would have been 'evicted' from the league next year according to one source. 180819 Sakon FC at Si Sa Ket 157 View album

Any time now

No raindrops yet. That weather system has slowed down considerably and seems to be staying north of the city. Forecasters have just been pushing the heavy rain forward from Thursday to Friday to Saturday, as if to say "any time now." I'm spending my time redesigning the calendar.   ☞ in the sidebar"Upcoming Events" They are numbered pages with some videos and pictures. I'll add links and updated information as it becomes available. This project will take a few days, hoping to add at least 3 events per day till I'm caught up

VOTING IN 2018 U.S. ELECTIONS

Your vote counts!  Did you know that many U.S. elections for house and senate seats have been decided by a margin smaller than the number of ballots cast by absentee voters?  All states are required to count every absentee ballot as long as it is valid and reaches local election officials by the absentee ballot receipt deadline.

I'm guessing plenty rain Friday,Occasional sun breaks a possibility

It's that tail end behind Bebinca that's coming our way. As this system seems to be crawling along, expect it to linger past the weekend

Water level down

I had used the steps in previous years to observe the height of the water level of Nong Hahn. These days that's not possible due to the parked tour boats.  This newly rebuilt (blue pipe) water station used by  municipal water trucks indicates the water level seems to be down by slightly over a foot August 15, 2018 August 3, 2018

Wonder how long the video will survive
