Tibetan Buddhist prayer flags and very spiritual-looking feathers outside a door at "Area 51" New Years Eve.
I just realized that a bunch of photos that I love never made it to flickr. Time to rectify that situation.
I really miss these guys...
One of the highlights on the Xiamen (Fujian Province) tourist map is the sprawling Nan Putuo Buddhist Temple Complex. Built at the foot of the Wulao Peaks, it is named for Mount Putuo near Shanghai, one of the four sacred mountains in Chinese Buddhism, and a pilgrimage site for over a thousand years.
As the rough tracks and stairways lead off into the woods, the way is brightened with random prayer flags and vegetation.
During the Tang Dynasty (618 – 907), the Buddhist monks who lived in the hills here had the area established as sacred Buddhist land and built the first temple dedicated to the Bodhisattva Guanyin. Today, the extensively renovated complex spreads over 25.8 hectares, and houses (among other buildings) the Buddhist Institute of South Fujian.

My brother-in-law desperately needs your thoughts and prayers. Here's the first part of the story. Brian was able to come home over the weekend, but then developed an antibiotic-resistant bladder infection. Yesterday, while my sister was inserting a catheter, Brian started convulsing. She called 911 and he was taken to the hospital. The doctors think that maybe she nicked his bladder or something and the bacteria is now in his bloodstream. This morning, they put him on vancomycin, which is a "last resort" type of antibiotic. They're also testing him for MRSA, which is a staph infection. Scary stuff. I'm just hoping and praying that the vancomycin starts to clear the bacteria out of his blood and that he heals quickly. Thank you for all the continued prayers.
