After all the rain, Plot 100 is a pond again. There are lots standing puddles on the grassy half and most of the woodchip paths I dug earlier are flooded. I suppose it will be squelchy till Spring now. One corner of the shed is very wet inside. I’ve dug […]
Since I have to check in for work, I thought I’d stop by here too. San Clemente is beautiful right now – warm and sunny and I can’t help but feel very happy we got the right week to not be in the UK. I hope everyone’s sheds and various […]
