I was going to publish a post about Community Supported Agriculture, but it's late so I'll just hit you with some pictures of my apartment and the classroom. I should have my thoughts on non-corporate farming together by lunchtime on Monday (Louisiana time).
Riveted by yet another life-changing lecture
Garma Sonam (Tyler) explains how nomads make cheese to the class. He is probably my favorite student. I spent the Lunar New Year with his family on the grassland.

Teachers get bored in class and stare out of the window, too (like last week, when a brushfire tore up the hill). This is my view.
The building that houses the English and Tibetan Departments.
A statue of the Man and Woman of Kham
Lunchtime tutorial
After a tutorial with Yudron (Leah) and Jenna. I visited Yudron, who got the highest score on the final last term, and her family last holiday. The picture of Lhasa was a gift from another student.
Gachu and Woko's families each gave me a printed
thankha when I vised their homes during the winter holiday. The one on the left is a thousand-armed Avalokiteshvara, and on the right is a leader at the famous Serda monastery.

The eastward view from my living room, upriver
Bedroom view to the east
Eastward and downriver
A view to the northwest from my spare room
On clear mornings, the snow on this mountain is illuminated when the sun peaks the ridge opposite the river.
