Rain

It works every time.

Thundershowers on and off this past week. It is something we haven’t seen for the last few years. Thunder, yes, showers, no. Lightening without showers is hazardly in a bone dry forest, as the last two years have proven. With luck we won’t have smoke filled skies this year.

The garden is benefitting from the moisture and lightning that releases nitrogen. I have long noticed a growth spurt after thundershowers.

The garden is beginning to produce, we have wonderful salads each night, consisting of a mix of about ten different greens.

Lisa, Willow and I were back in the bush today cutting firewood. We got most of it done between storms.

Very fine day.

    There is a word in English for that look, it’s Groaking from to Groak, “to look on silently—like a dog—at people while they are eating, hoping to be asked to eat a bit.”
