re: #316 klys (maker of Silmarils)

I was pleased with how it came out. mr. klys, damn him to hell, has one of those spectacular photos from a previous trip where the clouds are amazing and gorgeous and perfect and there’s no scaffolding and just argh. I can’t find it right now or I would post it. So we’ll have to go back. (We were probably going to go back anyway. We couldn’t get in at the place on the island he wanted to stay at, so another trip is in the cards at some point.)

Last time I was there Kiyomizudera (the temple in Kyoto with the elaborate wooden foundation) was under construction with scaffolding all around it. I had been several times before, but was taking a family member and was disappointed.
