we were all taken aback when our guide reached down about 4 feet into a pool that looked like it was about 8" deep, where many thousands of perch were hanging out.
Jeju is one of only a few traditionally matriarchal societies, with women bringing home the bacon (or abalone in this instance) while most men were in charge of raising the children and keeping the house. This is thanks to the haenyeo, or diving women, of the island. This is a rapidly disappearing field with most women keeping this tradition alive today aging well into their sixties. The women are free divers, sometimes diving to depths over 20 meters without any air. It was very interesting to be able to experience a bit of the history of this wonderful place.

Finally having a deck built onto the house. It is February and the ground is frozen solid. This was a lot of work by four strong guys. These are the first two holes they dug for the posts.
Week #37 (w/b 22 March) Words of Wisdom - Let’s share our best wisdom quotes or indeed your own words of wisdom. So, let's have a week of inspiration and entertainment which will, of course, brighten up all of our days. Forgive me but I might just use this one (!!) “Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which one to keep” … now, I will have to go and think of a shot that fits this quote by Scott Adams (American cartoonist and creator of Dilbert).
He who digs a hole for someone, will fall in it himself.

Well its another exciting Wild Beast Capture in the Woods of Virginia. I had been seeing this hole developing behind my bird feeder stump and was wondering how it was getting there. At first I thought it may have been the rain water washing it out but this picture sheds the light of day or shall I say the light of night on it :)

10 minutes into snowblowing the driveway, the snowblower's auger drive belt broke, so I had to resort to hand shoveling. Uggh! 14 inches of snow and a very big driveway.

On 7th January 17 people started digging on the site next to Carter's House at the entrance to the Valley of the Kings. They are involved in the important task of preserving the tombs in the Theban Necropolis. An exact facsimile of the tomb of Tutankhamun will open to visitors next spring.
The project has been funded by Factum Foundation.

327/365 Days in Color
I noticed this beautiful , bright day lily in my neighbor's garden. Once I peered over the fence, I saw a bonus chocolate brown butterfly, enjoying lunch !!. I think it's a Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, the dark version, but I'm not 100% sure :)
Spent the day chiselling chunks of wayward concrete from beneath the fence, chopping up the cement base exposed when the flags were lifted, gathering up the gravel from the troughs either side of the garden and digging soil that backs up against the breeze block pen.
It's donkey work, but it will open things up. The garden is shaping up nicely.
Two vents from the defunct Annie Pit, reminders of west Cumbria's rich coal mining heritage, form the backdrop to a basement battle between Workington and Fleetwood in rugby union's North Lancs/Cumbria division. Visitors Fleetwood won this scrum and the game, 40-13, at the Ellis Sports Ground to all but condemn the Zebras to relegation to the Cumbria League.
