The red, "white", and blue today. At least that's what someone calls it. The "white" is really silver though. The garlands had flowers picked from the Deities own land. Those kind always look best to me. One of the devotees who recently returned from Navadvipa gave Gandharvika a nose ring which she wore for the first time today. A small silver stud that goes well with this dress.
Partly cloudy for pedaling today. As a fixed gear pedaler went by me he noticed my brooks saddle. "Ah, there's a guy who knows a good saddle!"He exclaimed. "When I had a B17 it was the most comfortable touring saddle in the world" "Yeah! i wouldn't trade it for anything, greatest one i've ever ridden", "Some say there isn't enough padding but it just isn't true" Later as i'd turned my face back toward the asrama i came upon a couple of the young folks from the temple. We greeted each other with gales of laughter and waves. Then the light changed and we went on our way.
The orange pannel skirt dress tonight. As i took the sila's skirts off i found a nose ring that i thought was long since lost. Wonderful when Krsna allows me to find something like that. Pralad a dad, offered for Nrsingha Caturdasi a few years ago. Made as a night dress since the lord appeared at dusk it was offered in the evening .
