Erawan
Near Samut Prakhan, on the river south of Bangkok, is the park and museum of Erawan, where lives the giant elephant.

Inside the Elephant
In the belly of the elephant it was quiet and dark and it gave us an eerie feeling. We waited here until everyone else left, then we walked down slowly, and enjoyed the place.

Draw This!
I knew this huge elephant was nearby, but how to tell the cab driver?
I drew a picture of it for a coffee shop owner and he recognized it instantly and wrote the name of the place on a paper for me to show the cabbie.

About Me
- Name: wingssail
- Location: Seattle, Washington, United States
I am a sailor, born of a nautical tradition passed to me by my father and my Grandfather Alfred. I’ve spent most of life on my passion which is the sea and the vessels which go upon them. I have had many such vessels and now I live on and sail on the sloop WINGS. which I acquired in 1986 with my wife Judy who shared my passion. For ten years we lived on Wings in Seattle and sailed, including racing. Then we left the Pacific Northwest and voyaged across the world, across the seven seas, to faraway places, and made them our own. For thirty-eight years I have lived and loved this life. I still live on Wings, in Mexico, and sail and race often. Judy passed away in June, 2023 and I miss her but you can still join us and sail the seas as we did for all those glorious years. Fred Roswold, SV Wings, Mexico
