! Orin's Boot Camp Pictorials

In the last picture (rue), do I see Japanese honeysuckle? If so, is that an issue for you?

Sometimes when I look too long, I see pink elephants!  ...but you'd have to ask Fred what he thinks of Japanese honeysuckle as it is his plot!  So Paul, are you ready to help support On Narrow Pond?  Come on now, no need to just be minimally involved, go for it!

BRK Day 62
uh-oh. lost my phone yesterday and the pictures that went with it!  We did hugel kulture bed material gathering, some hugel building, then I got to plant potatoes......while planting, there were a number of things that germinated: the peas I planted in my very first planting, fava beans, and brassicas  -no carrots yet!

So here's a few pics from the past I haven't posted yet!

> lost phone...

Ouch. How deep is it buried? Any hope?


Best luck.

its final resting place is a mystery but I suspect it is at the bottom of a slash pile aka clear cut brush pile where we got hugel material

BRK Day 63

We put up 84 feet of horizontals yesterday around Alterton Abbey on the east side while Jennifer and Josiah built hugels on the west side. After lunch, we sculpted the berm sheds south end roof and removed rag weed from the road front of base camp.

YeeHaw!!! we made it to Saturday....a few hours of nesting labor before noon then let the innovating begin...Josiah made many pizza's last night in the rocket oven which we completely destroyed in a few moments

Here is the hugel kulture beds being made on the west side of Alterton Abbey:



That's right!  now Jen and Josiah will have a large garden on upper Wheaton Labs!

BRK Day 65

Made it to Missoula after some nesting labor in the morning; nice to get out once in a while!

Here's some unposted pics to review the week  -my material supporters will get an update Monday morning at the least of On Narrow Pond's activities!

BRK Day 66

late post today: youtube uploads for my material supporters of what is occurring On Narrow Pond took really long... here's some nice pics for the rest of you:

BRK Day 67

Yesterday went so fast I didn't notice it until dinner time!  

After the junk pole fence building in morning, we broke up into teams. Fred, Jen, and me removed a very large tree from the upper road in twelve foot sections...later I did a little chop and drop.
