I went to Fredericton for my inspection yesterday, so today was mostly spent sitting with Mike and Carol talking to Eric downtown, and then driving to Nicknack to see if Mento was around. When no one was there, I went to Millville and changed my two rear tires to ones I want to wear down a bit more. When that was done, I drove to the bush and arrived on the land just as it started to rain. It was light enough that it wasn’t miserable or that I had to worry about the stuff I was carrying into the bush, like my laptop and an old trunk full of letters and photos. I had covered the trunk with plastic anyway, just in case.
The cabin was as I’d left it, and I opened up the buildings and made some food while I watched A Brand New Life,
a Korean movie about a child abandoned by her father in an orphanage.
This evening I did some work in the yard and then some editing on Lost in the Tunnels. That book is nearing a decent draft status, so a few more drafts and it will be done. It’s not a bad book too. I think people will like the series, or I guess, trilogy.
On Wednesday, before I left to go for my inspection, I’d spent some time writing for Not Quite Dark, trying to get my ideas down before they’re gone, and now I am nearing the end of the first draft of that book as well. Hopefully I feel inspired tomorrow and I can get to almost the end.
