Bike ride day!

“[Ottawa’s] Rideau Canal, built at great cost not to provide a skating rink, but to maintain east-west communication in the event of a U.S. invasion.”

Go Canada! 🇨🇦

Incoming #Bangkok!

Small harvest of cherry tomatoes & jalapeños this morning 🙂

I love the thunderous decent of the massive Sake (breadfruit) sound as the fruit falls from the tree.

This is an incredible dissection by Stuart Jay, of #TheWhiteLotus season 3 intro into the symbolism of the temple wall mural details. These images are from the walls of one of my favorite temples in Bangkok built by Rama I, murals painted in Rama III’s era (1824-1851) www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TlN...

Followed!

Doing a little after work gardening, it is damn warm with no breeze. Feels like 38°C at 5:30 pm! Must be the hottest day of the year so far.

Lunch!

Raining! After 67 days of no precipitation at all in #Bangkok.

Wow. Mike White killed it. White Lotus season 3, episode 1 is a stunner, an an accurate depiction of Thailand. From a farang who’s been here for 36 years. #whitelotus

Measles?! No. I was wisely vaccinated by my parents in the 1970s. Just the best hot sauce I’ve ever tasted.

@armandl.bsky.social knows some good options after recently looking into this.

Happy 60th Canada Flag Day! 🇨🇦

Is it five o’clock yet? Close enough.

Happy 60th Canada Flag Day, eh? 🇨🇦

Valentine’s Dinner with my two favorite girls is a repeat of last night’s taco night as there was leftover beef and shrimp fillings and the Mexican hot sauces are so addictive.

It’s going to be a good harvest of large papayas over the next few weeks… and limes to squeeze over them as well! #Bangkokgarden

Doing my bit to bring down Bangkok’s PM 2.5.
