[Chainsaw pieces]
We had a big setback on the wood cutting yesterday. Seacth was using the chainsaw when a bolt sheared off, causing the whole thing to fall apart in his hands. Luckily, nobody was hurt. We're taking it to the shop today, but don't expect to have it back for a few weeks. Everyone in the area needs chainsaw service this time of year.
A few of us still have sniffles, but stuff is moving nicely nonetheless. Last night we celebrated the Autumn equinox. It's the midpoint between the solstices. The sun is moving fastest across the horizon, meaning that the sunrise and sunset are changing rapidly. Every day is two minutes shorter than the previous.
Right now I'm drinking tea and listening to two Pygmy Owls calling back and forth across the valley. They sound just like a single note from a pipe organ: toot.....toot.....toot.

And I'm back up to speed with the weaving. Today I'll try to weave a little extra to start getting caught up.
