Be still, Cody. Good dog.: January 2006
http://bestillcody.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Be still, Cody. Good dog. My work here is not done. Saturday, January 07, 2006. Knowledge does not keep any better than fish. My brain = a sieve. Truly. Most people claim to be forgetful because they leave their keys in the fridge or don't call Gran on her birthday. But me, I can be surrounded by post-it notes, email reminders, phones calls, scribbled messages, mnemonics and I'll still stare blankly as if someone had asked me to explain the physics behind asteroid impacts. Sorry - Do I know you?

trace elements: December 2005

Saturday, 17 December 2005. Up, up and away. Guard dog" is actually the name of the security company who guard the place where I live - I'm not being rude. Sohi (above) is one of the security guards at the place i've been housesitting; he doesn’t work for the firm, he's private. The bow was fixed by last night (look; it's a big 'un), and so he put on the uniform and proudly posed for a few shots. Thursday, 15 December 2005. Tuesday, 13 December 2005. Blips drips and strips. 8220;I would hide in a very da...

Be still, Cody. Good dog. My work here is not done. Thursday, May 11, 2006. But right now I don't want to think about that. I just want to be home. Posted by Be Still, Cody. at 09:59.

trace elements: June 2006
http://tracelements.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 20 June 2006. Getting excited about this Central Province village trip. We are going to have an excellent time! And both are currently building us pitpit t oilets. Yet saying that: today at work I felt that familiar twinge you get when you leave a place you have known, where you are known, where you have made a home and friends. I need to travel, I'm not good when everything's stable and the same - but it's not easy, dragging yourself out again into the unknown. Sunday, 18 June 2006. So anyway &...

trace elements: Caves in Laos
http://tracelements.blogspot.com/2008/05/caves-in-laos.html
Tuesday, 27 May 2008. Nice All the buddha statues were guarded by a few local people. We looked around, and sat down, and an elderly man came to each of us, recited chants over our right hands and before tying plaited orange string around the wrist. Although we couldn't understand what was said, it was a peaceful gesture that meant something to the people doing it, and that was enough. Sounds amazing Marie.something special to remember. I just came across your blog. Great stuff! Thank you for your time!

trace elements: tales from cambodia
http://tracelements.blogspot.com/2008/04/tales-from-cambodia.html
Tuesday, 29 April 2008. The weather was cloudy so there was no big sunset, more a gradual change in light. But it was a special place to be. We arrived in Cambodia by boat from Vietnam, travelling up the Mekong river to Phnom Phen and staying there for a few days. Cambodia itself has been interesting to visit, often sad. We have learnt a lot about the recent past – the civil war and then the terrible years under the Khmer Rouge and Pol Pot until the invasion by the Vietnamese. From Adelaide, Australia - ...
