getting hot






Alan is still hopeful about getting little goats... anyway, pictures: the Siberian berry - first harvest - might get more than this handful yet - tastes like a bit sour blue berries. Also the nasty geese, they were in the front loan for a few days to keep the grass down. Looked pretty, if noisy. From tomorrow they are going to share house with the ducks. Swallows got in Alan's workshop again, which makes life a tad difficult for them. Alan's holding a baby bird that got lost. It is beautiful, the colours not quite visible... You can see wwoofer Olga in the distance, she had some long days, the collected hay turned out a bit wet, so it all had to go out to dry... today, being a proper hot day (25C+) the awning went up. It looks good, not as out of the place as I thought... let's see how will it cope with the first night, and with the first storm. Very pleasant to sit under it.
We have lettuces and reddishes, besides the ever present sorrel.
Better empty those rather full freezers before the new season...
Run out of carrots and onions!
