The Drive to Jerusalem

Dry Bones, sali Ariel, road to Jerusalem,This is a photo taken out of the window of a bus traveling up to Jerusalem. The photo was taken a few days ago by the LSW (Long Suffering Wife). The past few days she and I have taken turns travelling the road to and from Jerusalem. The reason is that our printer is in Jerusalem and we need to do final color checking of the proofs of the Dry Bones Haggadah. After that we'll be ramping up to market the Haggadahs for Pessach 2014 (Next Year in the Marketplace!)

As you may know, a group of fans and friends funded the creation of the Dry Bones Haggadah through Kickstarter. I have been been hard at work trying to create a masterpiece and the LSW has pitched in big time.

If all goes well I'll post a picture of the Haggadah's cover later this week!

Meanwhile, here's page 80 of the Haggadah which shows the drive to Jerusalem:

The second blessing should read ברוך, not בברוך.

By the fourth cup, it probably looks like there are two "bet"s.

And maybe by the fourth cup, we see a truck instead of a bus in the photo??

it's a photo taken out of the window of a bus.

...and to jonathan horen;
hey there buddy. How's by you? Good catch on the typo.

The haggadah artwork, colors, typefaces, font sizes, layouts etc are now in place but both the Hebrew and the English texts now have to be properly proofread. Just wanted to keep you guys posted. But, again, thanx for catching the typo.

Is choosing a side to lean when drinking optional?
I would much prefer to lean to the right and go nowhere near an inebriated / stupified left!

This is getting to be exciting!!! I look forward to purchasing a hard copy next year, this year I'll just print it off or maybe take my laptop to the Seder

To all who caught the stuttering typo (בב) - well, it is the FOURTH cup, after all.

Some of the נְקֻדּוֹת are missing from the first and second line. But oh, this is so wonderful!

Awesome! I will definitely buy a copy when it's done. Possibly a box of copies for everyone at my table if it's not too expensive.

Oopsie, Bones... I must have skipped over the words "taken out of the window." Sorry 'bout that.
