The peacoc's face is visible now, along wth the beginning of the sweep of its neck. I've still got no non-brown-ish colors on the left, though.

Animals On The Walk Back
These were all taken on the quarter mile walk back to the car. They show how the village around the monestary still is in the nineteenth century for the most part. There were all of four or five local cars around. Population of the village is about 300. The scenery looks peaceful, but it hides a lot of poverty.

Roof Rack
The biggest news on this this week is that the roof on the right is completely backstitched. Other than that, some progress made on buildings on the bottom.

Outside The Monastery And Little Boy
Just a few shots from outside the monastery, and then some of a little village boy playing with a soccer ball. He was so absorbed in it he didn't notice people watching him.

Deadline Start
This is going to be an exchange scissors case and fob. I started it this week, and it seems to be coming along pretty well. Deadline is later this month. Think I can get it put together?

Inside The Cave
We went inside the monastery beneath the belltower. There are a small sanctuary, a room full of sleeping cells, and a path along the side of the mountain that leads to more. The path was rather narrow and not very well tended, so we didn't go there. All these were taken inside.

Second Part Started
I am on the second part! I don't even know how many parts there are, but this one is on its way to completion. It seems a bit smaller than the other one - more white space - so I am hoping it gets done quickly.
