And The Stones Waved Goodbye

Where last year I had made my way there through pouring rain and gladly accepted the tea offered after a tour of the students works, this years open day at the quarry, held by the Stonemasonry class, could not have been more different. People nonchalantly strolling between the stoneworks, having them explained by their creators or touching the works by themselves, thenheading up the gravel path for a sip and a bite at the big marble table, joining the others already sitting there lazily in the shade.

The atmosphere was of great joy, but one could also notice the participants of the class were a bit sad to leave, which is only natural after they had spent a month up there at Fürstenbrunn together. But who knows, this year already welcomed some returnees, so maybe we'll see some yet again next year. [mp]
