Thai teimple, Raynham, Bruce's visit

A lot has happened since the last blog: my younger brother Bruce, his wife Irena, and his son David all dropped in on the way to a Wauchope-Hayes-Tappan gathering.  More about that later.
We started the week with the Soulias and Johnsons and oysters!

Willis, Glenn's brother, and Glen and Elaine Soulia

Dana brought, and shucked, the oysters

Bruce and family on the way back to Nova Scotia, stopping by for a visit to Ames Nowell State Park,

As they were departing for Nova Scotia, we took them to the new Thai temple in Raynham,
the largest of it's kind outside of Thailand
Bruce and family are practicing Buddhists

There were monks in prayer at the main temple room.

We couldn't come in because of teaching going on,
but they did allow me to take one shot
