I love this time of year. This is our active pile that we have been putting scraps since October. It has recently thawed and I gave the barrel a roll. I opened the lid and saw and felt the steam rising. Love it.

Someone just gave me a red oak they had pulled from an unwanted place in their garden.

They quickly potted it in a small pot with cactus soil.

I brought it home and potted it in a 2 L milk container with more appropriate soil.

If all goes well, I’ll be planting this somewhere in the community later this summer! 

I challenge you to plant a tree…

April 28th; Camp Fortune; Technically, there’s still skiable snow…

We had a great year in west Quebec. 95-ish ski adventures (includes xc, bc, tele.)

Planted three years ago in sandy loam close to a wet ditch. It’s growing well.

That should read APRIL 6.

So much fun.

We toured the backcountry, some trails, some through the woods and we even pretended to ride a stationary, closed chairlift. Older bc skin skis and a sense of adventure made for a great morning!

Lots of snow in many parts of the park.
