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.
