Wat Huay Pla Kang, also known as the Goddess of Mercy, is a huge statue towering over a big complex the includes a large pagoda and a T-Rex. Some people also refer to this place as the Dragon temple due to the large dragon staircases for the pagoda and the Goddess of Mercy statue.
The interior of both buildings is fascinating. In the pagoda there are large carved wooden statues of various deities and also good views. For the Goddess of Mercy building, you enter the ground floor and can take the elevator to almost the top. Once you exit the elevator you have two floors to climb (easy) but the walls are covered with awesome designs - it really was cool. This was a great place to visit.
Keep in mind there is a lot of up and down walking. We saw a shuttle there but we didn't use it.

For rifle shooters who cannot aim with the eye on the same side as their trigger hand, these off-set sights are one of the solutions that allow them to aim with the other eye. The sights shown are for a right-handed shooter to aim with the left eye, but they can be reversed and mouned on the opposite side for a left-handed + right-eyed shooter. This sort of solution is very important to someone who has suffered an eye injury, has a congenital defect, or whose vision has deteriorated in one eye.

Can you believe who rolled into town today for less than four freakin' hours. Not even time for dinner. But lots of time for highly concentrated coffee talk! Great to see them, and quite a surprise.
Though I am miffed at Doug. I've known the guy for like 4 years now, and on his first visit to Vancouver where I actually see him in Vancouver, I had to see him by semi-surprise! That guy....
This was Tonx' first visit to Vancouver - not sure about Kyle.
Luang Prabang, Laos, May, 2004 - Here are some monks just after sunrise silently going through the town collecting gifts of food from the residents. It will be their only food for the day. I cannot look at these photos without recalling the smell of sandalwood which was used for very small fires in little sidewalk hibachi stoves for cooking in the morning.

An Indiana Railroad SD9043MAC and Tower B17 are quickly becoming a very familiar sight as the CP continues to use the INRD's power between Chicago and the Twin Cities to equalize owed horsepower hours between the two railroads.
I've been thinking about sight and blindness. I can't imagine what it must be like not to see, and I admire all the blind people that overcome all the obstacles to fulfill their dreams. They are beautiful.

Okay, so he found them. But what now? I mean he still has to find a way to get one of them out into rush hour traffic and they don't appear to be going anywhere...
