advantages of being penniless
-don't have to carry a wallet (for what? u don't have any money and credit cards are maxed)
-no cell phone, so can be a man of mystery (no one knows where u are or how to get a hold of you)
-no fear of bank accounts and other financials being stolen (there's nothing to steal)
-good dieting (can't afford fast food, or overeating)
-exercise (no car, so u leg it everywhere... especially if performing a dine+dash)

Since most people enjoy pictures, and very few actually read the words i write, I will talk about my latest excursion. I went to a lake about 25 minutes away, don't remember the name of it, but i'm 90% sure it started with a "H". We then went to see Huay Kaaw Waterfall which is less than 5 minutes from my apartment and I've never been there. Here are some pictures.
Lake "H" something or another

the only picture of me on this trip
food we ate while at the lake
The food in that last picture was delicious and very spicy. I started out in Thailand disliking most of the food, but now I think I will miss it. Pictured from what I can remember is: Muu Manaaw (lemon pork, very spicy) Muu nam tok (spicy pork dish), gai yang (fried chicken, bout the only non spicy thing on the table), spicy salad (i think called sum tom or something in thai), rice (rice), and i'm not sure what that soup stuff was or the shell things. We had more dishes brought out that I don't remember.
I'm looking at cheap things to do around Chiang Mai. I will likely visit all the temples I haven't seen yet, and motorbike around. I will go against TLC's warning and go chase waterfalls, although I think I've seen just about all of them around here now. That's about all I got for now. Shoulder is getting better, but still fairly stiff. At least now my arm swings normal when I walk so I don't look weird (or as weird).
Call me as soon as you are back. I have a challenge for you. Let's talk it over with some Thai food when you get back. Steve
