the last few. spirals. not in keeping with how it's gone all along the way, but have been stories of the days as they have gone along. Soon, i think, that will be over and i will be able to go back to the original plan. But these have been for me. For my own blanket when that might happen. i'll remember them as specific memory spirals...stories. There is temptation to write on them, but i've not so far. i might.
today Jenny and Alyssia measured. One of those long crank roll things that measures land. She is writing all the numbers down to submit to the Permit people. It's beginning to go forward. she also has all the maps. turns out that part of this parcel of land extends much farther over on the other side of CareFree Way than it seems. up into peoples places across the road....their back down hill land that they had at some time fenced off as their own. for instance the rooster swamp. Alyssia said this eve that there's enough there to build a house. So there is thinking. None of it will be involved now, but this is so much a multigenerational Place, this Hill. All of us see it extending into a future we can't yet even imagine.
