He appears to have dozed off, time to make your rounds with the keisaju, the encouragement stick, a few strikes and he is ready to continue his zazen. 😀

Thank you very much. And always happy to receive positive comments!

Hmmm, but it would not be very zen for people sitting next to that old codger if his feet smell(ed)… ;S
Lee says
No, it definitely wouldn’t. It was a very hot and humid day too, so unwanted odours were certainly a possibility…

I agree with Linda…you might need to add a “like” button Lee. I NEVER miss a photo but don’t always comment.
