It was actually this article that prompted me to post this morning. It's fascinating to me that there are still pockets of human beings in the world who don't know a thing about electricity, running water, cell phones, and the Internet. Hard to believe that's still possible in this day and age.
Aside from that, not a lot of news. Kitty is adapting pretty well to her new surroundings, as are we to her. We're all over our bouts with some evil stomach virus (except, perhaps, for visiting Nana who may or may not have it now), and I've got a three day weekend with apparently beautiful weather in store. Hopefully I can finally get the grass cut now that our stretch of rain is over and our garden is booming, including some great progress with my hop plants.
Hey Marc, you've started growing your own hops? How cool. Is cost the motivation? Looking forward to trying the beer.
ReplyDeleteDo you guys get rain ordinarily this time of year? We had a freak 3 days last week that set records for precip. and low temps, a really nice treat for us.
Isn't that amazing about the natives? Thanks goodness for those intrepid loggers-without them we probably would have never gotten a chance to enrich those poor bastards' lives. Can't wait to see them all with new Wii systems!
Seriously, I give them 5 years tops, and they'll be gone like a fart in the wind. Progress, right?
