Moving the Blog

I'll be living in Jerusalem for the next year, so I've started a new blog focusing on Jerusalem and Israel. I have decided to combine Pronaos with my Jerusalem blog for simplicity. I will still be posting many things about ancient temple traditions, but will also included other things I find interesting in Jerusalem. If you want to follow my Jerusalem blog, see the following:

Narcissistic Tweets, (whatever the heck they are).

For the next year I will rarely, if ever, post to Pronaos. When my year in Jerusalem is up, I'll return to using the Pronaos blog.

10,000 hits

Well Pronaos has been up for nearly a year and we've just had our 10,000th visit. (I suspect half of those are me.) Our latest guest was from Kyrgyzstan. I'm going to be travelling for a few weeks so the blog will be on hiatus until early September. (Sent from my iPhone)
