I could not use my flash in the exhibit or take video of the performers. This is why some of the pictures are semi-blurry and most are darker than normal. How do you actually pronounce the ruler of Mongolia’s name? Genghis Khan’s empire and influence through the years. The ruler, himself, as a replica bronze…

I’ve been working on this stupid 1,000 piece puzzle for way too long, but I finally finished it last week. I won’t be doing another bigger one until I move to another apartment, so lousy 500 piece ones in the meantime. The freaking trees were the hardest for some odd reason. Glad this one…
