Shockingly Free of Catastrophe

Friday was our very last farmers market of 2012. And today is our last CSA delivery. And early Friday morning, we head south for a desert camping weekend.

In 2012, we learned a lot about grasshopper controls, and what a season with no hail or flooding is like, and also what it feels like to work outdoors when the temperature is above 95 for an entire two month stretch.

This season had its own problems, of course, because there will never be a season without problems. But they were manageable problems. Not devastating catastrophes. It was nice, and while I don't normally try to think about things in terms of what I do and do not deserve, I think we were due for this. Thanks, God, for the solid. We appreciate it.

We are happy to have pulled it off again and also happy that it's over.

Phew.
