That was Then, This is Now

This morning while working out in the garden, I began to think about changes, good and bad, that have taken place here at the Land Stewardship Center since I lived here during the summer of 2001:

--There is a new well-constructed composting toilet.
--There's now a solar shower and a solar greenhouse.
--The boat dock has recently been revamped.
--A canoe has replaced the old flat-bottomed boat.
--Two swans now live on the grounds.

--The windmill doesn't work and needs repaired.
--Volunteers must now sign a liability-waiver form.
--The cabin's futon has developed a slight sag.
--My wife isn't here (her loss and mine).
