Outside!Chester was at school helping with sound and lights for a musical when on the night of the performance Chester saw a storm rolling in. Experience from previous storms taught him that skies like that usually end up creating a wet and slippery mess in the auditorium because there aren’t any walls and windows yet. This storm was big enough to where it made a mess on the floors and killed the power. We almost had to cancel the performance but luckily as someone was about to announce the cancelation the power returned. The performance was a big success, and everyone had a great time. While on our way to an appointment Peter and I, Tatjana, saw a truck with “Born in Amsterdam raised in the world” printed on the sides. We don’t miss the beer but when you read Amsterdam you can’t help but think about the Netherlands and about everyone we miss. We just redid part of our patio because the roots of our big palm-tree-like plants were tearing up our concrete. It took quite a bit of work to get everything looking nice again but the result is worth it. The next storm rolled through Chiang Rai when we were hanging out with the girls at House of Refuge. There was a loud bang and it scared me a lot. Turns out that it was just a door that closed because of the wind and not, like I thought, a lightning strike. This kind of weather is always kind of exciting because you never know how it ends up unfolding. One time it could be a really bad storm that causes a lot of damage in the area and another time it ends up only being a light shower. Regardless, you always have to prepare for the worst. Isn’t it great when your cat decides to pee on your motorcycle?! No, it’s not! It is really smelly but that is the moment when you finally decide to clean your motorcycle. Chester cleaned his motorcycle to point of it looking brand new. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Read more... Add new comment
