Friday Cadet Event

I enjoy photographing people, editing the pictures becomes somewhat of a social study.  Some group photos I count the number of mobile phones in use. 

Some faces obviously indicate they'd really prefer to be doing something else right now.

Many of these photos where taken across the football field, so there was little posing for the camera: au natural

Don't carry my mobile phone regularly.  It's obvious from my timeline on Google maps.  Carried it today and my timeline reflects when I started this trip, how long I traveled and how many kilometers I drove

Cool and Dry er

Temperature at 6:30 am. I trust the old thermometer (right) as it was identical to a now replaced thermometer. Time to get a digital thermometer. 

Actual and feels like temperatures are now closer aligned, a sign of less humidity in the air

Dryer air can mean dryer skin, especially if you take long hot showers in the colder weather. The remedy might just be a Thai oil massage.  Hydrate your eyes with occasional eye drops or a healthy cry.

Dam ?

Couldn't get the water to hold still for these four pictures, looks like they are building a dam with seaweed. Would not be surprised if it becomes a waterlily pond

Preparations are under way for next week's celebrations
Schedule translation pending 
I do know parade starts at 6 am on the eleventh. Been so for over a decade "personal experience."

I took the opportunity to look around a bit. There are few reasons why I visit shrines, temples and churches

ART

สกลนคร Sakon Nakhon

Colorful and a bit noisy and a lot of fun NEXT WEEK

The day before the big parade is a good time to visit the Chinese temple (Chao Pu-Chao Ya Shrine). 

A variety of art from paintings, carvings and vases are on display. 

Plenty of preparations for the next day early (6 am) start of the parade
