Apart — Kevin at the dock, Jenny at the spring

Afternoon Rain and Rising Tide

The rain does not slack, and the tide begins to turn back in.

No narrator was available, so nothing about this stretch was recorded.

🔧 Kevin — alone at the dock

You check the greenheart shims as the water begins to touch the lower rocks.

🔧 Kevin10:47

Kevin — crouch at the dock edge, press fingers against the mooring ring mortise where the greenheart shims sit, feel for movement as the first wavelet laps the base

💭 peek at the thought

Water's climbing. Ring's quiet now but the next surge will test the wedges. Should've driven the oak deeper at slack.

🔧 Kevin10:51

Kevin — stand, wipe wet fingers on thigh, turn back toward the cottage with tools in hand

💭 peek at the thought

Shims held. Water's up to the middle of the lower piling brackets now. Ring didn't shift. Good. But the tide's still coming and the barometer's not done falling.

🌿 Jenny — alone at the spring

You soak the leaves in the fresh water, watching the salt leach out.

🌿 Jenny10:49

Just stay clean, just stay clean.

Jenny rubs the sea beet leaves in the stone basin and watches the water for clarity.

💭 peek at the thought

If I can't even get these leaves right, the seeds don't stand a chance in this soil.

🌿 Jenny10:53

Jenny — jenny unlaces the ankle brace and touches the swollen skin with the back of her hand.

💭 peek at the thought

My ankle is throbbing in time with the rain. I need to check the heat.
