[Sunny and Warm]
The last few days have been amazing here - warm, dry, and sunny. We realized that the tree pruning workshop needed to be done RIGHT NOW! Buds are bursting and trees are leafing out. In February.

The garden team this year is fantastic. They're making plans, preparing beds, managing compost, planting seeds, and more. Remember that my last career was landscaping in San Francisco. I learned pruning from my business partner, an expert pruner with years of schooling and experience. After practicing daily with him for a few years, I know a thing or two myself now. I was happy to pass my knowledge on to a new generation here on the land. When it seemed like they were getting the hang of it, I walked back up to my weaving. Boy, does it take willpower to sit inside and work when it's so beautiful outside.

And this scene right here is the toughest to pull myself away from - my friends, done with our weekly meeting, all sitting in the sun and enjoying conversation.
