Go with the flow that only you know, and consider the rest as sketchy at best. Far be it from me to try and turn moss into a tree - for moss has a beauty same as carpet has a duty. Call me Apple, I require a minimum number of chill hours to be fruitful and crush.

Nothing too exciting today but there's plenty to do for the four of us boots.   The temps are coming down and the gardening is becoming slightly less relevent.  We trudge on with the water works and firewood gathering takes a priority upgrade.

Rain, I remember rain and in one night we get more than the past 3 months.  The seasons are changing and we go from a dessicated dust bowl to the instant pudding capital.  I'm not complaining because it's mushroom season again, if it doesn't get too cold too quick, I mean.  There's always something to look forward to, if one can look hard enough.
