Starting the Stems

Nearing the end as I am on the stems now. It's only stems to go, along with a couple more tiny buds.

 

More Ruins of Rivaulx

Rievaulx was one of the monasteries trashed in the reign of Henry the 8th. It's in Yorkshire and was rediscovered by the local baron in the 1800's. Most of the place was dismantled, yet the whole outline is there.

 

Naples Gate

One of the gates of Naples, at night and day. The neighborhood does not feel safe at night.

 

Dioramas in the Lobby

World War 2 scenes in the lobby of the Greek military museum.

 

A Little Armadillo

My armadillo star is stitched up. Next set of starts, time to start another star.

 

Still No Panda

A way to go before the panda starts appearing, but I got more colored leaves done.

 

Bits of Rivaulx

Dawn told us about this beautiful ruined monastery; the boys were in school; so the three of us went to see it on a decent January day. Rivaulx is just outside York, and you can see how magnificent it looks in the late afternoon light.
