Sorry about the little seedlings. I enjoyed what you wrote about the memory of trees. When I took my dog for the daily walk, we always met this gorgeous, huge beech tree The current owner of the property didn't know how old she was, but it must be at least 100 years, I'd think. A glorious, majestic presence.

I feel that I will be contemplating "Convenience is passivity" for a little while to come. Good luck with the soft fruits. I miss larger scale gardening, having moved into a townhome and it's fun to live vicariously through you.

Oh man, I appreciate it. But I really wish I would stop making it all bigger! :D

JUST STOP, MAN! :D

The first paragraph is especially pleasing to read - well done!

The sudden freezes this time of year are completely predictable, but nonetheless, also completely surprising - it's an odd paradox!
