Bordering Along

I almost have the upper border done now.  It's getting filled in pretty quickly.

In Roata Vremii

 We took our friends on the grand tour of Roata Vremii and have photos to show it!

Artifacts Meet Tech

Still in the museum with some of  the original digging showing.  It's also got some augmentation for context.  The maps are neat too.

Part Three Done

I m done with the alphabet, which means I'm done with part three of  the Colonial Band Sampler.  Yay!  Now I wait for the fourth and final part of the sampler to get to me in my very slow snail mail.  I've changed a lot of colors, added a band, and am plowing away on it.

Celebratory Dinner At Roata Vremii

On Florine's birthday we went to Roata Vremii.  We love this place with its great food and cute little museum.  This first photo is of the Lehtinens in front of the place.  It looks like a great, welcoming home.  Food was good, too, as you can see from the photos of fresh and pickled vegetables, placinte, and grilled meat.  Andreas insisted they try mamaliga too.  Great Moldovan food for a wonderful woman's birthday!

Under The Square

 The city of Krakow excavated its market square in the past decade as an archaeology project.  Instead of simply reburying everything, they made an underground museum and covered it over to make the square look normal atop.  The museum is pretty neat.  For one thing, they allow only a certain number of people in it at a time.  This means you don't feel as crowded or hurried as most places.  It also has a lot of tech stuff in it to make it seem more alive.  The first four photos here are of some of those.  Then there are a lot of finds from the square displayed either in cases or in ways that show how they were used.  It's a great experience.

Shutter And Stucco

The last big hole in the peach stucco is filled.  I also finished off one more shutter and a bit more tree.  I will be so happy when I'm done with that blasted tree.
