As the day drew to a close, Norbu and Ani Sherab put finishing touches on the placement of the petals, while Ashly, without instruction, took up a rag to clean the debris off the Stupa! Today I was working, so I don't know if anyone was able to make it up to remove the strap which was holding the petals in place while the PC-7 set up. If not, I'll be out tomorrow to do it, and to caulk. We'll see. : ) The coolest part is, Sherab thinks the new lotus petals look much better than the ones we replaced, so the damaged petals actually did us a favor! You never know....
