Guess what? I've been playing with YouTube, and this is my first blog with embedded videos. Lots more to come :)

Although I talk a lot about relaxing, I'm actually working a lot and getting lots done. I'm getting back to website development and doing all the things I wished I could have done during the summer, including re-posting videos of my favorite spinners that I first posted as .AVI files straight from my camera, but which many people said they couldn't watch.... so I've gone and embedded them here, and I can happily direct you to see Yuta, Matt Terry, and Ronan.

Meanwhile, life continues to be full. Nicola, Stefan, and I went to a Temple Party at the Wat near Pai the other night. We're approaching Loy Krathong, a very popular Northern Thai Festival. Although the main custom is to float boats with candles down the rivers, there are also lots of fire works and the oh-so-beautiful "Fire Balloons," which can be seen in the sky every night.

Enjoy!
