The rain just poured down my last day at Skanda. I watched the rain from under the roof of the lower garden, water transforming the soil between beds to canals. The woodchuck living under the barn had temporarily been blocked. I discovered he had a convenient entrance to the garden by the side, so I blocked that entrance with metal boards and steel bands. Hm, will be exciting to see what he makes of that!

After a nice warming tea and something to eat, it was already pitch dark outside. I borrowed a flashlight, attached it to my forehead, grabbed the planting tools and headed for the upper garden. It was 10 PM and a drizzling rain. But I wanted the herbs into the garden before leaving for Sweden early in the morning. Took a final look at the attractive corner with two chairs, an installation that I invented the same day – what a nice spot for a cup of coffee in the morning.

Good bye Skanda for this time, see you soon again!
