It’s the last full day or our semester course, and we’ve been fortunate to have Mors Kochanski visiting with us and sharing his insights into the work everyone has done. Beyond the obvious benefits gleaned from him sharing his knowledge and experience, his humor around the campfire is always a treat. We’ve also been shooting the final video for the semester course, and it’s been a lot of fun. The last big job of the semester will be to carry the rest of the brown ash down the hill and put it in the pond until spring.

For our final night I’m cooking sourdough pizza for the group and we’re having a party. This has been the tenth semester course we’ve run, and although they are a lot of work, they’re also a lot of fun.
