Damp


Fraxinus americana

The large white ash in the front yard takes its merry old time putting on foliage. This is the largest tree we have on our 0.1 hectare. It's height is in that 20 to 25 meter range for a mature specimen of this species.

In case you haven't noticed before, the official Deep Blade Journal style sheet calls for metric units wherever appropriate.

Meanwhile, the weather has made a big shift to downright wet. We've had only about about a centimeter and a half of rain over the last two days, but it's always dank and spitting something out there.

Fortunately, the rain held off at our press event with Medea Benjamin yesterday. It was really great and inspiring to have her here on her way to the Mother's Day White House peace vigil.
