Mike Hagerty's Photo of the Day

I'm going to start with a photo of the day to get myself motivated to keep posting. I tend to set these kind of goals for myself, do it for about a week or two, find a good reason not to do it one day, then use the same reason for the next several months until I get back to it. Hopefully that won't happen...but it probably will. The layout right now really is quite horrible and I realize the title appears at the top twice, but until I figure out how I want it to look, it probably won't change. Enjoy...

Back in Rayong

Today I drove back to Rayong after the weekend in Bangkok. Heading back to work in the morning.

I didn't actually take a picture today. This photo is from my tour of Wat Po, where the reclining buddha is located. I hired a tour guide to show me around the complex who was quite good. Halfway through the tour we were looking at some pagodas in the courtyard where people's ashes can be laid to rest if the family has the money for it. I asked a question about who is allowed to do that and he said it was just based on being able to pay, then stunned me when he threw out the line, "No money, no honey. No money, no home" He has a point. I had to take a picture of him saying it...


Looking around the NY Times travel section, I came across a cool article about a philosopher's trek through the Adirondacks, check it out.
