a little catch up

When you try to put a country into 13 days and travel to three cities... it is a bit frantic.. but I think we managed to take some time to spend more time doing some things that will last in us for awhile.  not sure I helped Kim meditate more...but it did not take responsibility for the reminder... which is great for me.  It is strange this year...with the fall and the burning of the fields in Burma happening.  The leaves are falling on the ground at the Nest.  Sorry to say, the little old man, while still alive is now senile and can not remember if he ate breakfast.   I think the nephew is now doing the pick up and they have two goats to do the grass mowing.... and life goes on.

When we walked to the stupa at the top of the hill, the young monks were carrying a motor up the 500 steps....just think of getting the stuff up there. They would get to a rest stop and flop like I would..the one extra guy carried the robes.










When we got to the top....I felt this Guinea hen was looking at me as if I was an evil spirit.  I must admit that I put the walking stick between me and the beak.  He was the hall monitor you did not want to cross.....












of course...the trip to the top is always worth the walk... There is a cave under the stuppa and it has many Buddhas and a memorial to the founding monk.    and the walk is not back since you have much to read.













and when you get to the bottom of the hill....I the non vegan treated myself to a dragon fruit cheese cake.... with a drizzle of dragon sauce and a dollop of whipped cream....hey someone has to eat this...







I wanted to go back to the yard statue.... it is 6 feet tall and bronze.  i tapped it yesterday and I think it is hollow... I suspect around 300 pounds.   It will be shipped to Buffalo in several months and I will have to uhaul it to the house... i have a good marble stab that I will plant and then set this on ....


happy bonny

Eleventh Day

 Wow, it is easy to slip into a similar pattern to what I had at home. I produced a plan to change many things - delete more emails, eat hea...
