Weather at Home Inspires oasis Sunroom View
Gwendoline DP Clark writes from Oginger Farm about a rebuilt south east sunroom with a highway view and a neighbour bush backdrop. She notes the room offers a new vantage for writing and weather observation though a winter ash pile and an incinerator mar nearby scenery.
Spring on the farm and a bee in the sunroom
The writer describes life on a farm with sunlit plans, bird and insect activity, and the first signs of spring. Barn swallows return on April 24, starlings chatter, and a bumble bee visits the open window as daylight saving time settles in. The narrator notes quiet tractors, planned clearing work, and reflections on sleep and rest.
