Fright Night
Meowing hissing screaming cats plus lot of thing being overturned.
The enemy had invaded, the neighbors cat had come in at 0300 in the morning
and he is not a friendly cat ,but no casualties only noise.
Much more quite is my resident frog it has been here as long
as me, as big as an open hand hides daytime and moves about at night. The only
thing that upsets it is the cats and they take a few small jabs at him every now and then but
he is still staying on.
The real thunderous rains have started but still very short
ones but still a lot of water
in that time. So now instead of adding water in the pond I
must emptying it so the fish don`t escape.
Fruits Logan and Jack Fruit I have in the garden and for the
fist time 5 Mangoes.
The neighbors said that the tree used to bare a lot of
Mangoes before I came and the tree was bigger and had been cut down some. So I
don`t know if that alters the fruit bearing cycle.
The garden and the house got fumigated this month for
mosquitoes talk about thick cloud you could not see more then 3-4 meters ,had
to flee. The guys that did this only had a towel over the nose and mouth , they
might go before the mossies does.
Mekong is rising quickly
now and even my small river is up.
