Wathondara’s Garden For Sale

Here we have a guardian angel, perhaps, keeping an eye out for Phra Mae Thorani, Thailand’s Holy Mother of Earth.

Here’s a closer look at my favorite Goddess. In Myanmar she’s called Wathondara.

Notice the for sale\rent sign in the background. I wonder how much, and if the goddesses come with the garden?

All food for thought while editing and munching a ham and cheese croissant at Thoroughbred Bakery in SF.

Happy Sunday, thanks for dropping by, and stay tuned for more fairy tales from afar by Photojimsf.

I’d rather be doing this.

Today’s coffee musings courtesy of Google photos; remembering this touching moment from 8 years ago this month.

It was my last day in town and I wanted to bid farewell to my favorite gentleman friends who helped make my stay so lovely.

There’s Sophana, yours truly, Dee, and Toto. These lovely young men are members of the all Cambodian crew at the BC Bar in Jomtien Beach, Thailand.

“BC” stands for Boy Cambodia, btw.

Stay tuned for more fairy tales from afar by Photojimsf.

It’s a fun little story album of statuettes, trinkets and decorations I found interesting on my joywalks in Thailand.

Thanks for taking a peek, and stay tuned for more fairy tales from afar by Photojimsf.
