seasons

where did they go? It's November in Wisconsin, and it's 70 degrees???

so, michelle and laurel are both gone from the farm now and it's just me (and rob) and occasional cameo appearances from duncan, erika, and jody. it's a different job, without co-workers. seems somehow more like work, but i'm still enjoying it thouroughly. months ago i was wondering what farmers would possibly have to do in novemeber (isn't everything dead by then????) but no. we have lettuce, spinach, lotsa other greens, broccoli, scallions, kohlrabi...the list goes on. it's a beautiful time to be in the garden.

as the world continues to spin out of control, i've re-contracted the wanderlust virus - a highly contageous and suprisingly not rare strain that everyone should watch out for. i wanna go off. travel. do stuff. someone recently and cruelly informed me that i could get to hawaii for $90 and sit in a field of guava trees. evil. a whole damn axis of it.

this whole thing could be a lot more interesting if i had a digital camera. i'm generally anti-digi cam, but then i could show you pictures of broccoli and the graveyard i went to on halloween and maybe - just maybe - even my new pink slippers.
