Bua-Tong (yellow flower) Weekend Family Camping Trip

Back in November our family invited another missionary family and two of our Thai friends to camp out at the Bua Tong Blossom Festival held each year in November. The hillsides of Khun Yuam and Mae Sariang districts were filled with a host of golden Bua Tong (yellow flower) blossoms. As gay as a daisy and almost as large as a sunflower, the Bua Tong only blossoms for a month. Where we camped the blossoms appeared profusely.
