New posts...

Anne-Sophie ensures that the ever growing topsoil layer is protected from being washed down the slope of the gully by the winter rain. Our garden surface has risen above the level of the adjacent field. Every season promises to be more fertile than the one preceding. As it should be. Look at what she does on her day off from caring for the aged and infirm. It's not cissy work. Each post requires a hole created by driving an iron bar into the schiste rock below the soil with a small sledge hammer. The planks are temporary till we get around to building the retaining walls. It is proposed we will make a number of gates along the fence line. It is going to look sweet. Saving the Earth starts and ends at home.
