Think I'll be able to make this one "live" for once! Will probably be on G+ for any other sitters out there.

Thanks to Jundo, Matto and Ron for that G+ zazenkai sit. Sorry I was a bit late; tuck-in ran long.
Gassho and a terrific weekend to all.

Thank you Jundo Sensei and all fellow sitters! Part of my Ango Samu commitment has been to finish up all the half finished projects around the house :shock: . I did 3 hours of painting today so my wife let me sit this one live while she watched the kiddies :D
Gassho,
