    This was recorded back in July, but time and things and travel got away with me.

    Actually what happened was the fact that I can't spread podcast production across more than one day. If I do, I will forget it needs to be finished. It's not great spending 4+ hours to produce and upload 2 shows, but if I don't, one will fall by the wayside. ADHD brain for the win.

    We will be back in september, hopefully with lots of amazing ditch digging.
