It was another busy day in the office as I start to wrap up our work here and update the finding aids. Because I was busy, I didn't take any new pictures.
I mentioned that SF had gone with some staff and students to a Gharwali village beyond Kempti Falls on Sunday - here are some of the pictures she took.
The snows from the road to Kempti:
Grain field near the village:
some buildings in the village:
Old stone pestles for grinding corn - now they have access to electric grinders:
Washing dishes in a culvert:
Corn drying from the rafters. You can see a couple of small dark panels behind the corn - this is for beehives. The villagers now have the benefit of bees for honey for their own sweetener and to sell for additional income.
