What a glorious spring we are having in Pennsylvania. Here is a photo of our weeping cherry tree in full bloom.
The tree only holds it’s flowers for about three days. I was home to actually see it this year.
I am traveling to North Carolina today so thought I’d share some photos from Joe’s recent trip to Thailand. A few miles from Joe’s brother’s home is Thailand’s King’s Wat. It is a thousand acre park with beautiful buildings, monuments and temples.
Visitors from around the world visit to this temple which houses the bones of Buddah.
Our nephew, Roy, in his teenage mutant ninja clothes. Can you say kowabunga dude?
Joe traveled to Elephant Island for a few days and saw great sun sets
Lots of monkeys…..
Do they have a monkey Mary Kay’s in Thailand?
What a cute baby!
And, of course, Joe had to take a ride on an elephant.
Joe captured great photos of some birds.
A Siamese Fireback, the national bird of Thailand….
A Great Hornbill….
An Indian Roller….
an Eagle……
And my favorite, the Hoopoe…..
While sitting outside, Joe saw this little guy crawling up the bush.
BOOK REVIEW
We saw this little book at a book store in Bloomington, Indiana. Craig Yo is the author and although it was a short read, as I turned the pages it just grew on me.
Which reminds me of my favorite Latin phrase : Res Firma Mitescere Nescit
Until next week ……
