Lugnasa Hiroshima Moon
The Hiroshima Moon has begun to fade. Next up will be the Garlic Planting Moon. The Hiroshima Moon made me aware, the whole month, of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The insanity of nuclear weapons. Then, the insanity of using them. Then, the insanity of stockpiling them. Now, the proliferation of nuclear states. I think I’ll keep the Hiroshima Moon in my naming list, just for the reminder. Never forget.
Vega and Rigel have a new hobby, digging under the orchard fence. There are now six such attempts, two have achieved break through. At one point this kind of thing amused me. Me against the dog. Human mind against canine. Now it frustrates me. A lot.
These two, sisters never separated since birth, act in unison. Rigel digs, then she rests and Vega digs. A hundred pound plus dog can move a hell of a lot of sand. A lot. Grrrr. Ruffff.
