At the end of the day, we made it all the way around the upper steps, at least as far as we could reach...We had to restrain ourselves, knowing rain was on it's way (with the sun shining it was tempting to continue repairs). It turned out to be the right thing too. It thunderstormed all evening! Don't worry though! Your Stupa Crew was tucked away in the temple safe and sound...

It was an evening of practice, so I returned home late. Thus, I'll keep this brief tonight. We're slated to remove the scaffolding tomorrow, so do tune in!

As always, every effort you see here, from the updates on this blog to the many people coming out to participate in this renovation, and all those amazing folks you never see here (the fund raisers, book keepers, organizers), all of it is devoted to keeping these precious sources of blessing in the world. And to making them available to you! If you'd like to see them in person come on out to Poolesville (see the KPC Maryland link on this page to find directions!). If that's not an option, we'll keep you up to date here! May all virtue or merit generated by these efforts be devoted to liberating every suffering being!
