Great photo. Thanks. It got cloudy later after we ate but when we got there it was beautiful. Checkout the restaurant thread in the Chiang Rai forum to see the new restaurant at Rai Boon Rawd. Here is a more colorful angle, just to the right of the other shot. Edited November 16, 2013 by villagefarang 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to say I don't know what the pink flowers are called. They also had fields of yellow flowers they referred to as Tua Brazil but that didn't sound right to me so I am not sure. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post T_Dog Posted November 16, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 16, 2013 We have been having a few evening thunder showers in our area with the rice about a week from harvest. The thunder storms cause micro bursts that can do a lot of damage to the rice, but it should be okay this late in the season as the combine will pick it up. Every morning after the night storms, I see the farmers going to the fields at dawn to assess the damage. Just a bit in the last few days, but last year it was very bad. A micro burst will come straight down and flatten the rice. I've seen it take down trees over several acres in the mountains of Idaho. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post samuijimmy Posted November 17, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 17, 2013 (edited) The canal system in the Ranot area of Songkhla, is huge.... mostly for the rices paddies, but more and more each year for Palm Oil plantations! every once in a while they have to dredge out the accumulated crap! This canal links up with Thali Noi, from Ban Khaw, five or six kms! ... great for birds too! One day I will try to find out when all these canals were put in... it's quite a network! .... and not just fish nets Edited November 17, 2013 by samuijimmy 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
