Taking a break.

BLACK-TOPPING continued.  Here is a lady worker who keeps feeding sawdust into the fire to heat up the gravel, tar, etc. mixture.  There are other fires to heat up the tar to pour into this mixture.

Feeding the fire beats begging!

Day 166

NEPALI LADY

This lady was walking down the path beside where we were taking a break.  I had just given some children some pencils.  Her and her friend kind of stopped and hung around.  Our guide then told me that they also want a pencil.  They stayed around awhile and she enjoyed the little butt of a cigarette she had left.  It was down to 1/3 inch but when she dropped it, she picked it up and was going to enjoy it to the end!

Enjoying her smoke!

Day 165

NICE VASE

The footballers gave us this vase as a 40th anniv. gift.  I then had it filled with 20 roses.  Note two of our grandsons playing football in the right side background.

Day 151

ALICE had a lot of fun in the bookstores in Thamel, Kathmandu, Nepal as well as in Pokhara.  Here she is selecting some for her grandsons.  She spent hours in these stores while I went out and did other shopping.
