Seriously, I just opened up my laptop and three were running around. Then two seconds ago another crawled out of a corner. I killed each and (oh another one) every one, you would think they would learn. And another one... They are endless. I don't understand why they like my computer. Probably because it's a Mac Book and its oh so pretty. Well, I didn't start a blog post to tell you about the ants in my computer, but because this past weekend for my Tourist Guide class (I just killed another ant) we went on a class trip to Pai, a town a little bit further north from Chiang Mai. I just killed yet another ant. I also flipped my computer over to look by the fan and there were five! Yes, I smushed all of them. I think they make babies inside, which is probably why my computer might die at any moment. Oh another one- it just got away! Got it. So back to the story, (by the way I am not exaggerating- I really have killed that many ants in the past 5 minutes), I just killed another, it crawled out of my F key, and another. Okay, well we (my class of 12 plus the instructor and 7 friends) left early Saturday morning for Huay Nam Dang a national park, see the photos, it was beautiful. Then we took off for some random Japanese bridge that is super old. Then to Coffee and Love, a coffee shop that I guess you have to go to before entering Pai. I just killed an ant on my arm. My bother just called, and I killed like 5-10 more. So then we went to a hot spring, very nice. Then to Pai to our resort. We ate, and relaxed. Then went to a market and bought food to bbq with. That night we just ate and hung out. The next morning we took off to a cave. See the photos. Then we saw a viewpoint, very nice. After we went back to Pai, ate lunch, walked around, saw a temple, and headed back to CHiang Mai. It was a good weekend. So I just killed like 20-25 ants. Im going to ant hell. Oooo 26....29...seriously ant hell.
Oh and here are some photos:
Very trigger happy
Even more trigger happy

Kali,
It remains a mystery what happened, but maybe I can try this again. Again thanks for the stories and the photos, some of which are totally amazing. I can not tell if it is the eye, the camera or the place that fascinates me the most.
So some family updates - in case you are interested. I am sure you are missing home and some things are moving on. As you know Mable turned 85 last week - day of your post in fact. She sounds to be in good spirits and they had an event for her at the house - cake and ice cream and by all accounts everyone showed up - not me of course in Phoenix. However, after being roundly criticized for failing to put up a family photo frame, I finally provided one featuring me, Adam & Marion, Myles & Lori.
Everyone sounds good and in good humor. Your dad is looking to buy a car and I tried to persuade him to come here - no rust, but I don't think he will buy my plan. It sounds like the weather has turned in Vermont, but in Phoenix the days remain over 100 and it is almost October!
OK, enough from me, maybe I will be successful again at getting this posted.
