Drought
It has been very dull and boring here. The summer is here and everyone
is out doing other things. This is just an observation. We are in our fifth year of below normal rainfall here in western Oregon. This year, since the rainy season began in October, we are about 24 inches behind normal. I can tell how dry it has been because of the fresh wood that I am turning. Normally, at this time of year, I would expect that a fresh cut tree would give me, the walls, and ceiling a drenching shower with all of the water in it. Instead, all I get is a few spots on my glasses, and a bit of surface water on the bowl. the bowls are drying in less than half the normal time. This is just too weird. robo hippy |
