Dear Steve and BDnowers: Thanks for your journal entry from the East. Here at Aurora in southeastern British Columbia we have 2 to 3 inches of powder overtop of a slightly crispy edge of the Mother. We are on 33 acres of rocky outcropping hilltop, the highest point in the centre of the Kootenay River Valley facing South to Idaho. I experience the land here as very active yet resting at this time of year, a kind of meditative state. After three years of severe drought we have been gifted with much moisture this Fall and Early Winter and can see early signs of Gratitude. For the second winter in a row the Robins are still with us and small flocks of transient birds often come through. There are a couple of new bird species around and new sounds abound on the land. Coyote and Deer are frequent visitors to Aurora and lately Coyote is very vocal and visual. Raven, hawk and eagle come and go in play and break the silence of this time of year. Enjoying the rest that winter allows and looking forward to preparing and spraying the Three Kings and sending Many Blessings of Fertility and Abundance to All - Barbara
Woody adds: Venus, Bessie's last calf, is now a 28 month old heifer, in her 6th month of pregnancy and getting the royal treatment around here, shelter- and feed-wise. She is content and prospering. Crystalization period is well under way here. Holy Night blessings from Barbara and Woody and the guys http://www.kootenay.com/~aurora -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Saturday, December 29, 2001 6:56 AM Subject: farm journal >There is a thin frost in the earth here on eastern Long Island, maybe two >inches.
