Wednesday

6/10 inch of rain in the pond gauge this morning. The rain stopped and the clouds were gone by 8 AM. It was a steam cooker all day and the clouds started building again by 4 PM. More rain. At this momemt Camron is waiting by the fence with the shovel, a swing to lower ourselves into the hole I should have dug in the next hour or so, and several instruments that look high-tech. I have a contract to edit in the next hour or so - AND I REALLY DON'T WANT TO DIG A HOLE BIG ENOUGH FOR PEOPLE TO WALK AROUND IN, but I can't let him know that. Productivity should be cultivated. The flaws in his plan will become apparent to him when he sees me collapse.
