Statuesque

Almost all of downtown Skopje is covered in statues.  It's kind of weird.

Avondale

My crewel GCC arrived.  Now to find time to get it done.

Squared Up

Middle square all filled up.  Time to do the outside and get this puppy done.

Views Of The Archaeology Building

The archaeology museum was just across from our boat hotel.  It's got an imposing front.  The back, not so much.  The bottom two photos include our boat hotel in the photo.  Kind of neat, kind of kitschy, but it was fun.

Skopje At Night

Earlier this month we spent at weekend in Skopje.  It's definitely more economically developed than Pristina, and larger, but it's very shallow.  All the pretty outdoor instagram shots, but no real substance.  This is one of the bridges over the river at night.  Pretty, yes.

Rooftops Appear

This is a lot of stitching, since it's just about full coverage.  On the other hand, I'm beginning to get parts of the main design done.  Yay!

More Yarn

The upper yarn I bought when I bought the grinda yarn.  I'll use it for a scarf.  The lower Andreas got in an adabox.  Not sure what he was supposed to do with it.  It's now at the women's prison in Lipljan.  I'm sure they'll make something wonderful with it.
