We'll have to check back tomorrow to see if the storm impacted our work, but we both knew going out there today was a risk. All I can say is there is some kind of weird vibe one becomes infected with when working intimately with the Stupas...they call you, and they tell you what to do. Fortunately, we both recognize that the merit is in the offering, not necessarily in getting it "done". If we have to start over we're prepared... : )

Though the weather is getting into that hot, humid, swampy ambience Maryland is so prone to, the land and Stupas remain powerful places of refuge for all beings. Though you might want to spread some insect repellent and sunscreen these days!
