A beautiful day in Huelo. Uttertly gorgeous. Blue sky. Hot sun... I worked like a dog at J&M's today. Cleared up the brush I cut the other day and dug some big holes for some Avo's they are going to get. Chipped out some more pathway leading down to their Jungalow, and spread some gravel on a path that needed it after so much rain. Planted another little hedge of glyricidia sepium too.
After lying down for an hour or so I wandered up to the nursery, glad that Lorinda nd Lichen are so reliable with the feeding of the animals and potted up some more Arachis cuttings. I checked for good root mass on some of the older pots and was gettting some compost ready to plant out a tray around the "barn garden" when I heard the phone ring. Lorinda got it.
A little later Lorinda called out to me. Jen had just come home and seen water running down the road near the bag...
"Oh fuck!".
As quick as I could I got into the truck and roared up the road. By the time I got there the bag was empty. I dragged off the sodden carpet with a heavy heart wondering where the hole was. Basically a hole seam had burst open. I don't know if I can glue it together again or not. I am pretty downhearted right now, I can tell you.
But, I went and planted the tray of Arachis anyway. Got 25 seedlings in before the light failed me. And of course now it is raining again, so I don't need the bag water tonight anyway.
