We have another houseguest now. We still have the one from before, Pam. She's moving out on the 12th of May. The new one came from South Carolina. She is from my wife's home town in Thailand--Malida is friends with her aunt. She is here on some sort of student work experience thing that didn't work out. I guess the people she was sent to stay with in South Carolina were kind of mean. In any case, she called Malida and asked if she could come and stay with us for a few weeks until she returns to Thailand toward the end of May. So we have a full house.

We have quite a bit of room. It is a four-bedroom house for two people. We each have our own office room, and the other room is a guest room. Malida's office has a futon bed, so that's where guest # 2 is sleeping.

It took the cats about a week to get used to Pam being here, but with Praywa (the new guest), it took about 10 minutes. First Chocko came up and sniffed her feet, then Mook did the same. They seemed satisfied with what they smelled, and are now just doing what they normally do. Mook is fascinated with Pam, and spends a lot of her time staring at Pam's door, hoping she will come out. I think they bonded when we were in LA.



Here's another shot from yesterday, taken with my macro lens. Just some little plant growing out of the rocks in the burn area.

Such a lovely photo! New life taking over seems to have a special beauty. I really liked your other photos of the burn area too.

Thanks! I really like doing macro stuff, especially when the larger environment seems a little overwhelming.

I was surprised by the beauty of the burn area. I hope I can keep going back and watching it change.

Sounds like your guests are easy to deal with, so everything will be fine.

Great shot and the other ones of the burn area.
