RE: Off to the Ranch #22: Turning the compost | Adding matter | Temperature

This is exciting stuff! Makes me want to dig my hands into the compost you're building! Keep them composting posts coming, and best wishes for weathering through the cyclone. I gather you live down in the stormy part of South America. Roaring 40's? ... or even just 30's?

Yoooo, David! I wish you could smell that compost; it's smelling so good.

I'm on latitude 32.0408°S. Today is blowing 30-35 knots with 45-50kt gusts from the West. Tomorrow it shifts southerly and loses intensity. Ufff. It's all fine though. Gotta check the beach on Thursday to see how bad it was.

Such an accurate report! Iḿ impressed... Yeah, a quick look on the map made it clear that Brazil doesn't even reach into the 40's. Though from what I've heard (and which you just verified), southern South America can be pretty stormy in general. Oh hey, I've just noticed: the Californian property I'll be active on (hopefully soon) is also on 32-something degrees, just on the northern hemisphere.

Yeees! A lot. The shore here where I live has some 300 registered ship wrecks from all eras due to the winds. But nothing beats Patagonia; it's just way too unpredictable.

Do you still have that bamboo bike?

Dude, that bike got stolen, robbed, gypped, ... How should I put it? I tried to sell it, and the bastards scammed me. I even wrote a post about it.

Fuck me. I did not know. I'll check the story. Bike thieves should have their legs broken, seriously.
