Elladaniel XVII

Well, well, well. It seems FFN isn't accepting uploads again this morning. Isn't that fun... NOT! Ah well, it's for this reason that I put the URL for this place in my profile over there...

It's been hot here lately - at least, hot for this locale and this length of time. I happen to enjoy the foggy mornings that don't clear until about 11AM, and then the fact that the fog comes back in about 5PM or so. That fog means that it doesn't get ungodly hot here. Clear skies at night, for us, mean chilly nights and hot days. Good for the agriculture around here, tho; the strawberry farmers love this kind of weather.

We're expecting a bumper crop of grapes (the old-fashioned black Concord variety with the huge seeds) and English walnuts (our tree generally gives up on average a 200lb. harvest each year.) Of course, getting anybody out there to actually pick up walnuts and/or harvest the grapes is another matter entirely. And there are oranges languishing on the ground that will have to be thrown away. I really hate doing that...

Anyhoo... on that note, here is the next to the last chapter of Elladaniel. Enjoy!
