► Started Jo's kiln on a glaze firing. (36F/2C @ midnight.)
► Jo's kiln is up to 1034ºF/556ºC. All the wax has burned off and the fumes vented. Shut the lid fully. (36F/2C @ 3 AM)
The area right behind our garden. This area was cleared only a year or so before we bought this place. The previous owners were trying to make a pasture out of it, but Jo and I decided it was much to steep for that purpose. We've let the trees grow back.
► Time for some sleep. (34F/1C @ 4:45 AM)
► First cuppa coffee is so-o-o-o good. (They're all pretty darned nice.) 41F/5C, sunny skies, light wind @ 10 AM.
► Time to move on to off line projects. (51F/10C @ 1 PM)
Our garden for 2008 is over. Temperatures a few degrees below freeze did in everything except for some dill weed. Of course, there's still a lot of work needing done out there, but no more produce to harvest.
► Back from a pleasant afternoon walk up the road. (55F/12C @ 5 PM) Temps forecast for tonight not quite as cold as last night's 30F/-1C.
► Midnight: Clear skies ... calm wind ... 39F/3C. A perfect time for a midnight snack, I'd say.
