A belated and very overdue pruning of the pumpkin jungle.

Mostly because I had no idea that was a thing. But it makes every sense.

Frog got deported from the sauna to this well abused tree stump that now features a small pool.

Doesn't look too upset about it. Bit of a pokerface though.

It finally stopped raining and the squishy brown mud is improving, both outside and in my intestine 😜

So continuing on the foundation job. High time.

Took off the supports and took ages chiselling out a temporary piece of wood that was supposed to come out before the concrete set 🤦

Then mixed up some more lime mortar and put a nice 45 degree'ish bevel on the bottom log. This is the weather side and got rained on plenty for days, yet when I pried off a piece of lime mortar for science, I found dry wood, so this works as promised.

Lime mortar = wood can dry.
Cement mortar = wood will die.

Anyways, that's it. I'm definitely not back at full strength yet, bending over still gave me a pulsating headache.
