    Wow....not only sturdy, but I bet it's very simply built being a Monk's residence...and I also can imagine the peaceful and tranquil setting.

    Mine's HERE if you'd care to join me. My first since TNChick stopped hosting long ago.

    Happy weekend.

    When I was younger, I used to dream of living in a cave home. Not any more though as I figure they'd be on the spartan side! ;b

    Not so my taste too frugal, but if it dates from the 11th century AD, it's really solid !
