One room of many, filled with heavy hearted artists...
|
...of the most photo realistic quality. Crazy. Scary.
|
An old part of the wall. Chiang Mai means 'Walled City'.
|
I entered and implemented my most eloquent verbiage.
|
The small fish eat the mosquito eggs. Quiet little heros.
|
The Stupa at Wat Chet Yod showing off new silk scarf.
|
I wander around the quiet grounds...
|
...and check out the 7 spires...
|
...and evade the protective local rooster. What a cock.
|
Many details have survived for more than 600 years...
|
...including this classy and traditional Buddha-Fortune-Teller.
|
"Oooh! I'm the last intact one! I win you guys! You guys?"
|
A small, riverside chicken farm. Every little girl's dream.
|
Just walking on the bridge peepin' the hood...
|
...eating the most wonderful noodle filled sausage.
|
One of the many day markets [where I'm highly out of place].
|
A foreigner cemetary - and a 'Campbell' is among them!
|
And another! that's 2 out of 70! Bad odds for the freshmaker!
|
Wow, I hope they have more to say about me when I go.
|
From back when they called Thailand 'Siam'. Those were the days.
|
Just your typical back alley temple. (Can you tell I'm getting templenumb)
|
My office in Chiang Mai. Not too shabby.
|
The lovely courtyard of The Garden Guest House
|
The front office and my 'master bedroom' above.
|
After telling clients I'm still there for them - a day out to scale the mountain!
|
And then a sweaty climb of the few hundred stairs!
|
The Nagas - sharp teeth, bright colors but fairly harmless.
|
Sometimes it's so gold, it all just looks totally fake.
|
All you dumbos: big ears mean good luck by the way.
|
A monk blesses some temple goers.
|
The view would have been great - except for the wax paper haze.
|
Mom - this is how you seemed to me most of my teens :)
|
God it was hard to not hit every bell.
|
Little Northern Hill Tribe Girl. Actually makes the hats looks cute.
|
Planning for the trek with the Danish boys, Kristoffer and Anders.
|
The horrendously packed Sunday market on my street.
|
The packed bus full of 12 trekkers. Mostly Swedish. As usual in Thailand.
|
Walk to a waterfall - this is going to be EASY!
|
Visual poetry.
|
Anders, a vision of pure joy!
|
I was standing down a step. I swear!
|
Watch your step. Seriously, the closest hospital is not close.
|
Yes, 12 people in the back of each car. Pretty shitty sir.
|
Alpha Team gets ready for launch!
|
Strange Phil leads the way behind 'Bin Laden' (really his nickname)
