Walks, weather, and small repairs. Updated when there is something to say.
The stove gasket, finally
Three winters of “next year” ended in forty minutes with a tube of rope cement and a
flat screwdriver. The door now seals with a satisfying thud and the glass stays clear
past the first hour. I regret nothing except the delay.
Ridge loop, east to west
Twenty-two kilometres, most of it above the tree line. Wind from the north the whole
way, which made the exposed section tedious and the descent quick. Blueberries are past
their best; lingonberries are not. A dipper was working the stream at the car park.
On keeping a rain log
I have been noting rainfall in a pocket notebook since May. It changes nothing and
explains everything: the well, the mud by the gate, the mood of the dog. Recommended.
About
A personal notebook, kept mostly for myself. No comments, no newsletter, no tracking.
If you want to say hello, you probably already know how.
