It's feeling like spring, but it's definitely winter. How are you preparing for the spring? We are prepping beds and setting up fencing. #grownostr #permaculture #lifesteading #blooms #homestead #bedprep #gardens #fence https://image.nostr.build/3f1d6dfd716dd97b329d6470dc12eafe3d14c316831d19b2a1e86a8c86ca543d.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=1920x865&blurhash=ZACawsfzn_IW-.xuRjRQW._DR-xUWCt6oMRofiX4%25UWU%253%25cRPIDWEjukAadxptQsDV%5BRRR%2Boxt7&x=153f65232ed305960dcac79ef147232582a74854dbbbe20ed52b0c05fdc34d02

Another evening, another batch of recordings processed. One more to go and the palette of sound will be ready to begin painting this album. There's eight different musicians involved, and I'm almost at the point of bringing the sounds together. I have made a few of my own recordings for the project into finished works. Here's the first excerpt.

The power is out, and the snow is still falling. It's a snow day for us. Though my three year old has a small fever. Thankfully the woodstove is hot, and the gas stove has flames.
