Well, the shower has given us a few problems, after countless trips to just about every hardware on the island and several reattempted joins I think we finally have a shower hooked up by the ginger terrace. Tim did some landscaping work there today, moving rocks and planting pennyroyal.
Brooke and Susan have been doing lots of different things, sheetmulching in Takako's food forest, caring for chickens, mulching and weeding and planting and harvesting in the gardens.
I bought a 1950's 8N farm tractor with a mower and a post hole digger yesterday. Spent a lot of today looking it over with Donald, greasing up the fittings we could find. I had a a bit of a practise with the mower and dug a couple of holes. It will be great for planting trees.
