JULY 2013



July 2013


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.
