Spring weather in Nelson is crazy! It’s been raining a ton lately, and the river’s up a lot higher than I’m used to. Today started out beautiful, but the rain started in the afternoon, and as I’m writing this now, it’s still beating down on my caravan roof.
I spent the day working on an operations manual for the retreat business – everything from household duties to use of the planned software for booking, enquiries, billing, etc. I only got about halfway through, switching between writing and doing mending so I wasn’t staring at the computer screen all day.
We had a gorgeous organic lamb roast for dinner tonight. The meat was from a guest who has a farm in South Otago. I’d planned to go there later this month to help out with lambing as a WWOOFer, but I’m not sure whether or not I’ll make it down there since the car shopping hasn’t been successful yet and it would be really tough to get there without one.
One guest left today, but we still had enough people to play a game after dinner. We played Settlers, sort of a board game. It reminded me a little bit of Civilization, the computer game I wasted half of my middle-school-era free time on…I have a hazy memory of having played Settlers before –in Austin, TX on the cross-country road trip, maybe?
