Anything related to Egypt dynastic periods or Islamic architecture

I am interested in discussing topics or obtaining help in some of the projects I am currently researching. I have visited almost all of the remote pyramid sites in the Cairo area and have pictures and information about many. Also if anyone has been to the Abusir area recently or been to Senusret III more recently than last February please let me know. A lot is happening in those areas at present.

If anyone has done work at either Kom Ombo or Medinet Habu please let me know. I am also pursuing information on the avenue of the sphinxes at Medinet Madi.

Every time I go to Egypt I spend at least two days in Cairo mosque exploring and have also visited some other Islamic monuments. Currently my two favorite areas are the Northern Cemetery and the Street of the Tentmakers ( best place to eat street food in Cairo).

While not directly related to your work but still dynastic, here is the link to a news story about the discovery of Teti's mother's pyramid (identification still pending conclusive evidence):

Let's just say the world is always a better place when Zahi Hawass announces an exciting new find! :)
