Looking Up From the Courtyard

Individuals who live in mountain communities are always looking up or down. Members of the family may be cooking or weaving in the courtyard while others stand above their heads talking or spinning.
A ladder, leading up to the higher level, stands against the steep dirt wall of the courtyard. It is in the family courtyard where most activities go on, especially during dry season.
