Happy birthday Harry

Have a very happy birthday Harry.

Now Grandma's 96

On Saturday it was your Grandma's birthday—actually, I mean your great-grandmother. Your great-grandmother, Hazel Shield, turned 96. Not many people get to be that old. Maybe she'll still be here for another four years and then she'll be 100. This picture was taken this year. She looks healthy. How old will you be when Grandma turns 100?

love from your young Granddad who is only 61

Meet the elephant

On the weekend I went to visit my friend who lives on a main road in Mahasarakham. While I was there a procession came down the road so we went outside to take a look. While we were watching the procession these two guys were walking up the other side of the road with this little elephant. They have some kind of food in the bags and if you want to feed the elephant you can buy the food from them.

Later they came back down our side. The elephant came right up to me and was pushing me with its head, looking for some food. It is only a little elephant but very strong. My friend bought some food and gave it to the elephant but it was still looking for some from me. But I didn't feed it because I was too busy trying to get this picture for you.

love from Grandpa John
