Well, now I am a “gentleman of leisure” once again. Well sort of. I was laid off from my seasonal job at Kingsbrae Garden and have, for the first time in my life, applied for Unemployment –or rather– Employment Insurance. It remains to be seen if they actually grant me this, with my pension and all. We shall see. In the meantime, I am spending more time finishing off existing projects and starting new ones. Hen House, Snow shelter for the “tractor” and snow blower so they will be more easily accessible in the coldest parts of the winter.
This weekend, we had a pre-taste of winter here on the Ridge. A couple of inches of snow actually stayed put. Down in town, everything is nice and green still. Today, it felt like spring, with melt water dripping off the roof everywhere, on your head, down your neck….
The joys of country living.
