Yesterday morning they finally started putting asphalt down to pave Siskiyou Street and finish the driveway in to our road. They worked diligently through the day, and got it done. All of this means that this coming Sunday, we will be able to drive into the driveway to our own road and parking area. A big step forward.

Also yesterday morning, they prepped the Fremont end of Siskiyou for paving. By the end of the day, all of the street was done.

We have work parties most Wednesdays from about 9:30am to about 3:30pm out toward the Sodo. Most of those days we also do zazen in Uji from 11:30am to 12:25pm, followed by vegetarian lunch at 12:30pm at the 85th house (3155 NE 85th, a block from the main entrance).
