Lynn’s had a week that should be in a disaster movie. Jane’s had one computer glitch after another, not to mention the bathroom wall—which is also her bedroom wall—disaster. Go give these two some love! You won’t find notice about the new...

…well, actually they’d been in his possession, and when he heard of plans for chiseling, he decided that wouldn’t do, no. So he and OSG spent all yesterday afternoon figuring out a bandsaw which OSGuy had tracked down, calling in a massive lot of...

Actual words. The outline is as conflated as it’s likely to get for now, or until more inspiration strikes. It’s time to start writing the story. I’ll make a ‘safety’ copy of the actual conflated outline, and put it away. I’ll start...

Jane’s beautiful little espaliered apple tree is in: it looks like one of Tolkien’s elvish trees, three branches on a side, and centered on the back (barn red) fence. It has a Gravenstein graft, a Fuji, a Gala, Yellow Delicious, Yellow Transparent, and a...

We have ton-o’ new plants. Of course. Jane worked outside from dawn to dusk, and I popped out now and again to assist, but I couldn’t take that icy wind. She came back in after building 50′ of sidewalk (40′ to go) base (it will be gravel, lined...
