In the northern part of Thailand, we headed up to a place near the border of Burma (which we sadly did not enter, because I promised my mother that we wouldn’t), called Soppong. It was a tiny little town and we had to ask the bus driver to remind us when we got there and also to please stop the bus (the bus ride is another story, perhaps for our Friday POTD). Just outside of this town are the Tham Lod Caves – the largest caves in Asia. When we got there, we hired a guide (a Burmese refugee woman who carried a lantern for us and occasionally stopped to tell us what the limestone formations were nick-named; “crocodile”, “dogs”, etc.) and then jumped on a thin bamboo raft, as the caves are a series of three and to get from one to the next you float and then jump off and hike up and around. I’m sure I’ll share other photos of this part of our trip, since it was really fun and sort of isolated especially when compared to the resort we stayed in at the beach to finish our trip off. None of the German or Italian tourists at the beach took our photo like the Thais did at the caves – at least I hope not!
So, after jumping around in the caves for a few hours we bathed in Purell (the last cave is known as the Bat Cave – and while I thought that meant we got to sing the song over, and over, and over again (Erik did not agree that this was awesomely fun) it really meant that we were touching make-shift wooden stairs that we covered in bat…um…droppings – it was either that, or try and jump down the 100 ft to the raft), and then went to get lunch. There was a series of stalls along the entrance to the caves with all sorts of food on one side and an impromptu market of Hill Tribes people and their handi-crafts on the other. We plunked down at one of the stalls and ordered up some food. This photo is of my lunch (fried noodles, tofu, egg & veggies). It was so tasty that I could have eaten it forever. That was the thing about the food – I never got sick of it and we always chose Thai over Western food. I could still be eating it every day, except that I have a new “moral” issue of paying $10 a serving in the States.
This is getting really long, but my point is that the food was amazing & this meal was especially good. I would still be eating it today if I could. Even though I woke up in the middle of the night with a wicked case of traveler’s um…stomach. Yep.

I left my camera at Greg and Lauren's. Ordinarily not a big deal, but with project 365 it is. I can't miss a day or I'll slip into a depression so deep I may never come out.
Luckily the QA department at work had one. I went exploring around my office looking for something to photograph. They put me upstairs with the storage boxes, seventies wood paneling and flooring that's even older. Photos of that just left me feeling depressed. So I decided to go with a picture of my desk. Years later I'll look at it and laugh at how old everything looks.
To future Ryan: Hi... How's that cabin in the woods you always wanted? Anyway, look at how big that cell phone is!! Isn't it crazy?? and back before you had bionic robot eyes, do you remember how you wore those old fashion glasses on your face! Oh man what were you thinking??
Here's another bit-o'-honey I love about BurningMan:
You and your lady friends need to use the potty around the intersection of 2:00 and Allanté and as you cross the "street" drying the Purell on your hands, you walk into a camp where there's not only... um, a piano, but a classical pianist.
IBM impact conference (thousands attended) had a twitter fall capturing tags for #ibmimpact. There were multiple screens at the conference.
I do enjoy the Purell station too, is Twitter that dirty? Yeah.
Today was quite a day. We celebrated Griffin's birthday today, with a party at a local fun-spot called "pump it up." Like many people, I don't really love the kid-party-businesses, but this one really worked well for us. There were no games that separated the kids out into isolated activities. Instead there were giant obstacle courses and slides and bouncy castles. The business is as crazed about hygiene as I would be if I owned it. Unlike a 'play place' where we are guaranteed a case of diarrhea or an upper respiratory tract infection, Pump It Up starts the party out in one room and then half way through, moves the party to a second room which has just been cleaned with clorox. The first room is then cleaned for the next group. Then everybody purells before leaving the second room to go get pizza and cake and open presents. It was fun, kept the kids interacting while doing something active and actually took safety and hygiene into consideration. The party flowed flawlessly and because the staff took care of enforcing the rules and moving things along, I got to play with the kids and have conversations with the other parents. 23 kids. No clean up. I'm a huge fan.
Then we came home and prepared for the Easter celebrations tomorrow. Enucleated some eggs (I just can't bring myself to say that we 'blew' the eggs), colored them in swirling patterns, filled plastic eggs with candy and then went out to dinner with grandma and grandpa who are visiting from Wisconsin. Finally, home and to bed.
This photo is of Margot, who is making swirls in the oil and color mixtures by blowing on them. I couldn't resist.
Happy Easter to everybody!

“I’m learning a lot of different jobs to get more experience.” – Charles Williamson, Goodwill program participant working in the Contract Services Division
Charles Williamson began practicing his work skills in the Goodwill Contract Services Division in November 2009. “I’m learning to get along with my co-workers and how to clock in and clock out.” Tony Petak, who also works in the division, will tell you about a similar experience. “People are friendly here. I am trying new things and learning people skills.” Both Charles and Tony have ambitions to find competitive work in the community. Charles would like to be employed as a janitor, and Tony is working toward a position where he could work with animals.
In 2009, Goodwill program participants practiced their work skills on projects within the Contract Services Division, totaling over 27,800 hours. With a commitment to customer service, quality products, cost savings and timely production, the division maintains contracts with many locally based businesses like GOJO Industries, Inc.
GOJO is the leading global producer and marketer of skin health and hygiene solutions for away-from-home settings. Based in Akron, Ohio with facilities in North America, South America, Europe and Asia, the company’s portfolio includes hand cleaning, handwashing, hand sanitizing and skin care formulas under the GOJO®, PURELL® and PROVON® brand names. Since 2005, GOJO has been a loyal Goodwill customer, providing program participants with packaging and assembly projects to help them learn new work skills. Participants like Charles and Tony count out 24 retractables for each package and seal them for shipping. As a result, the GOJO products are finished on-time and on-budget, and the revenue earned is used to support Goodwill’s mission of helping individuals prepare for, find and retain employment.
“It’s not just Goodwill. It’s good business.” Goodwill Contracts Services provides a local outsourcing solution paired with a skilled and efficient workforce to complete projects in assembling, packaging, collation and mailing, die-cutting, de-manufacturing, sorting, inspection, re-work, and industrial sewing.

Here's the other side after I applied it.
I tried to wet this side, but I didn't put enough purell. It would dry off before I got the leather close. I ended up just doing it the same as the other side. I cut the carrier back to expose just the edge, stuck that on, checked alignment, then removed the rest of the carrier and laid it all down.
I *did* use lots of purell on the lug to get the leather over it. That required just a bit of tugging.
In this shot you can see a slight "imperfection". Actually, these photos are all very close up and show the any problems much greater than they are when actually handling the camera.
I suppose at this point I can quote Morgan again:
"You were furnished with spares because some of the kid skins have "marbling" effects that some might interpret as an imperfection. A natural grain skin will always have a completely unique pattern. There were probably some dark areas or veining on one or more pieces and they were graded as "spares". Obviously this is not a problem with black skins, and is really only an issue with the Indian Red and Verdigris leathers. If you want to write about it please go ahead, but the vast majority of kits in these colors are not supplied with any extra pieces."
I received "spares" in my set, and I had asked him if this was normal.
I would imagine that after a year of wear, this will probably look a lot more mellow, so I'm not worried about "imperfections".
Always a gentleman, Sen'or Misterioso would explore in his impeccably pressed white suit and Fedora. Tromping around in only the best and most difficult abandonments, schmoozing security guards, hiding in plain site from the police, and using his elite skills to pass by cameras and motion detectors.
One day while touring an insane asylum, with it's asbestos and lead based paint chips, he encountered the fecal matter of a raccoon transplanted from the Three-Mile Island meltdown site by a unbalanced animal rights activist.
Taking a repast to reflect on the things he had experienced that day, he unwrapped his Nutella sandwich and ate, neglecting to use his Purell.
The combination of radioactive dookie and hazardous material forever change him and his suit. Giving him a supernatural aura that defies description. He has soloed the Oval Office at high noon, led a tour of 28 fellow explorers through Norwich (when it was hard), and time-traveled to June 1992 and helped the last of the nursing staff carry boxes to the parking lot at Danvers State Hospital.
His great resistance to toxins, glowing suit, and uncanny sense of direction, even in tunnels were cited by the Catholic Church in their decision to name him the patron saint of urban explorers. A title that, while flattered, he does not recognize as he does not support organized religion.

It would be interesting to count the number of hand cleansings we indulged in during a 24 hour period. I've never in my life washed my hands so often.

PURELL 272012 Dove Gray TFX Touch Free Hand Sanitizer Dispenser
So many crazy textures. This arrangement had been touched so many times by passers-by that it needed it's own Purell dispenser next to it.
I have a proclivity to put flowers I receive in the women's restroom at workplaces, because I feel so secretarial with a bouquet of flowers at my desk and the bathrooms at work are just so... bland. There were 2 bottles of Purell on the counter before I added my stuff:
- a bouquet of flowers from the boyfriend (and 1-800-FLOWERS)
- lavender body mist from The Healing Garden
- lavender hand lotion from L'occitane
And because office bathrooms can be key indicators of team culture
H1N1 madness in the office today
Every so often I paused, took a few deep breaths and knit a few rounds. Knitting works like meditation for me.
Direct Relief International workers pack shipments for tornado and storm response.

THE STORY: It's mandatory (for religious tradition/respect) to take off your shoes if you wade into the Ganges River at Haridwar, India. I'm fairly germophobic and this was a pretty nasty walkway but figured, when in Rome ...

Still wandering with my macro lens. Lacking the time and inspiration to get back in the studio or do more creation rather than observation. Feeling a bit of a slump in this 365 effort, but I’ll find some new inspiration. Meanwhile, I liked the color and texture of this backlit with the sun.
Day 234 of 365 (Year Two)
Six days to go and the real planning has begun. What do I need to bring, what do I want to bring and what will fit in my ONE checked bag? I'll be damned if I'm giving the airline an extra $50 to check a second bag.
One of the things I learned about first hand last year was Con Crud. When you get that many people together in a limited space like the piss poor elevators in the Hyatt germs will get transferred.
It isn't that I'm a germaphobe, but my two days of suffering from Con Crud was enough for me to think about preventative measures. Purell, or in this case, Germ-X Hand Sanitizer is a must. I just hope I have enough.
