วัดศิมาลัยทรงธรรม / Wat Simalai Songtham.

As you can imagine, there I was thinking, "Oh, great. Another boring-ass temple." But I really liked this one. It was almost like a fort you would have built with your neighborhood buddies back in the day, built straight up the side of a hill, though.

Trigger warning: If you don't like frightening imagery, get out of here now. There's some pretty weird shit up there on the top levels. I like looking at it, but I would not want to spend the night in there.

อุทยานแห่งชาติเขาใหญ่ / Khao Yai National Park

It was my partner's idea. I don't know if she sensed my desperate need for nature, or if she just felt like a road trip. One thing's for sure: Better get your travelling done while you still can.

วัดศาลาลอย / Wat Sala Loi. It's been a while...

Looks like they've made some changes around the temple grounds. Still nice, as always.

Now it's just like it was in Roseville, with one big exception. Toby is waiting for us at the Rainbow Bridge. It is very nice exercising at home. I can still go to the fitness center for weights if/when I feel it.

Best part is the tunes. At the fitness center, I had Spotify playing tunes through a single Bluetooth earpiece. Now I've got the Sony CFD-G50 boombox AND the Sangean WR-1 prison radio putting out sound that is plenty good enough for my 67-year-old ears.
