Good Things Topic.

The topic should have a future but i am not sure if some of the posters should,.

Oh dear - and more off topic and personal comments removed. I can see this topic has not got much of a future if this continues.

I don't think the topic has been related to Chiang Rai for quite a while.

Personally I think it would be a very, very good thing if members would lead by example and post the kinds things they are most interested in reading. Setting a good positive example has got to be a good thing in Chiang Rai or anywhere.

After our day trip with VF last year and not being able to walk to the lookout on top of Phu Chi Fa, due to my 120+ kg weight, I was motivated to lose some weight.

Have gone from 122 kgs down to 91 kgs at the moment, heading to 85kgs, so I feel that is a very good news and all being motivated by the desire to see the views from

the lookout on top of Phu Chi Fa.

I hope you pick a day without too much wind....at that weight you will get blown away.

Won't go into any detail Harrry but could ask my wife to stop me from being blown away.

boasting again

I am trying to convince myself this is a good thing.

For the second time a neighbor dog has decided our home is a better place to bear her young than her own place of residence. She chose the exact place another dog chose a couple years back. Four pups so far but I suspect there are more to come.

Our dogs have all been fixed so the pups don’t belong to them.

The Pied Harriers are back for the season, cruising low over the rice fields. What a joy to watch.

The terrible haze which has plagued us recently, mysteriously left today and I can see the mountains again.

Two good things in my book.

After 6 years in our present location (not exactly real boonies - we live on a major highway, our village has approx 275 residents) a major event! Until now, the village communal system pumped well water to about three-quarters of the village, the rest had to make do with their own wells.

We, along with 190 other residents of the village, now have government water! The remander of the residents should get it sometime next year (according to the Chiangwat/Amphur buget for waterworks).

I'm sure many of you will not consider this a big deal. It sure as heck is to us!

Should have included this......

I know this is an old series of posts, but I came across Pomchop's list last night and it is what made me join this forum and stirred my desire to move to Thailand! Awesome list...really well written. Thank you.

Thanks for your kind words.

I agree that Pomchop is a superstar when it comes to noticing and helping others to notice the simple joys of life here in the Rai.
