Evelyn Helminen is in Armenia with the Peace Corps, the following are pics from armenia
Evi's host family in Armenia
reading about Armenia, it was surprising to find that the main religion there is Apostolic Lutheran. Ev said that most don't go to church unless it's an "event". the man's name is Gnel and lady's name is Gohar. a little bit primitive living, cement block house, heat water for a bath, no air cond; very hot in summer
Narrow street in the village
Evi's host children blowing bubbles

From the casita deck...pete's new greenhouse in the back, he was able to use it once. I planted a bunch in there this year. hope to do more next spring if i am able. Lots of flowers in bud, and lots of planting to do. I love it.
little "fountain" pete made, his pond, and tons of forget-me-nots all over
Looking up towards the "casita" (little house in spanish). Pete and I sat on the porch in the evening and watched and listened to the birds
Bird feeders, tuberous begonias, chiminea
