I'm tempted to buy some film for that, but then I'd have to wait for them to be processed and run them through software. Digital is much faster.

As we arrived in each new city, our Chinese guide would tell us the population, and it was always in the millions. There was a Chinese American woman in our group, and Chinese people often came up to her speaking Chinese. During one tour, a young Chinese man joined our group because he wanted to practice his English. Surprisingly, some of guides spoke against the communist government - about how their families had suffered.

The hotels we stayed at were very luxurious - a beautiful Holiday Inn, for example. It had a huge lobby with a woman in a ball gown playing a grand piano. I went to the desk to buy postage stamps, and the woman gave me the stamps along with a pot of glue and a brush. Funny. We got home before the mail did.

As we were about to fly to a different city, our USA guide saw that Aeroflot was the airline. He put us up in a hotel so we could find on a better airline the next day. Good move.

Thanks for looking in on the travelogue Bill.

As far as I understand, the name "Golden" Triangle was coined to express the riches coming into this area because of the opium production and sale, not for the actual gold located there as a mineral. - There are plenty of golden structures and statues to be seen in Thailand, as well as in the neighboring countries of Myanmar and Laos. Today's largest producer of gold in the area is China, it is apparently now the largest gold producer in the world.

Looking back to ancient times, when these temples were constructed, it appears that "Gold is fairly widely, though irregularly, distributed throughout Southeast Asia in igneous and metamorphic hard rock deposits and in sedimentary placer deposits" and is mined to various extent in almost all southeast Asian countries, with the largest mine located in Indonesia. The area was actually known as the "Golden Land" already in antiquity, as referenced by Ptolemy almost 2000 years ago.

I trust this answers your question - and welcome you to keep looking into the continuation of my travelogue.

The seasonal change is obvious in my dog walks. A better sun angle without getting up so early, yellowing of the vegetation in anticipation of trimming, new bird activity and fewer flowers. Unlike the southern Hogs, soon I will have to rely on my archives for flower shots to post.

This set is the result of this week's dog walks.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

My wife has a marker that all of the European royalty has (and a ton of other European people as well.) So she takes that as proof that she's descended from royalty which should entitle her to a lot of money. Right?


What makes you think that ROYALTY did not have children with the "fair handmaiden"--does that make you a "bas--rd"?

here is my favorite Chile recipe
“TEXAS OIL FIELD VENISON CHILI”
Cook: Rig Hand “Bill”

"Cin-Chili" Chili
Cindy Reed - Houston, Texas
1992 & 1993 Terlingua International Chili Championship Winner
Cindy Reed of Houston, Texas, made history by winning two consecutive championship titles in 1992 and 1993 at the Terlingua International Chili Championship. Cindy is the only person to hold this honor. Cindy is actively involved in chili as a board member and spokesperson for CASI. She enjoys traveling and meeting new people as she cooks her winning recipe around the country.

Step 1
2 lbs - beef chuck tender cut into 3/8" cubes--(venison, 2+ lbs, cubed)
1 tsp - cooking oil or bacon grease
1 tbsp - dark chili powder
2 tsp - granulated garlic----or one whole garlic
In a three-quart heavy saucepan, add the above ingredients while browning the meat.

Step 2
1 - 8 oz can of tomato sauce
1 can of Rotel tomato sauce
1 - 14-1/2 oz can of beef broth--- two 10 oz cans
1 tsp - chicken bouillon granules
1 tsp - jalapeno powder---
1 tbsp - onion powder
2 tsp - garlic powder
1/2 tsp - red pepper
1 tsp - white pepper
16 oz - spring water----very little water added, use Shiner Bock beer
1 tbsp - dark chili powder

1 pkg - Sazon seasoning (msg)---
1 tsp - onion powder
1 tsp - garlic powder
1/2 tsp - white pepper
5 tbsp - medium and dark chili powders

Can you refute any of my factual statements?

Why do your "type" hide behind "politics", racisms". etc. when you don't like to hear "facts" that disagree with your viewpoint.

It used to be called "depletion allowance" as the oil/gas fields were drained. That encouraged exploring for new discoveries.

Wise investors will benefit.
Better than increased taxes which the government will waste.
Who caused the problem?
His name is "Brandon" closing down the Keystone Pipeline and declaring war on the fossil fuel industry.
