Overnight Changes

Literally overnight (and a little of yesterday) there were two changes in my environment.Until yesterday, the parking lot at our building for motorcycles and bikes was pretty much a free for all. Here's a picture from last year. There are a lot more motorcycles and bikes this year.
I did see them working on this when I left for work yesterday and by last night it had been transformed.




And then, near my office, was this newly erected billboard - there was literally nothing there the morning before - urging the people of Chiangmai to stop fires and help reduce global warming. As an Alaskan, where billboards are banned statewide to protect the spectacular view, it was a little jarring to have my view of Doi Suthep at this point so suddenly blocked. But the poles holding the sign up are made of bamboo, so there is a possibility that this is a temporary sign.
