Afternoon Preparations
Kevin sits at the kitchen table with the starter assembly, while Jenny finishes her chores in the garden. The tide continues to recede, exposing more of the northern shelf.
The heat is oppressive as the atmospheric pressure drops, signaling a coming shift in weather. Kevin and Jenny spend the afternoon maintaining the garden and organizing gear ahead of the supply boat's arrival in two days.
The wind is turning. Kevin, did you get the limpets inside yet?
wipe the condensation off the plastic of the seed trays and inspect the underside of the sprouts for white fuzz.

No. On the porch. Getting them now.
walk to the porch and bring the bucket of limpets inside, set it by the stove

Move them further away from the trays. The salt spray will kill the seedlings.
stand up and brush the dirt from my knees, walking toward the kitchen to check the barometer.

Right.
pick up the bucket and carry it to the far corner by the door, set it down on the flagstones

We need to de-salt those limpets before the storm hits. I'm too tired to boil them twice.
walk into the kitchen and lean over the table, then look at the seed tin on the high shelf.

Soak them in fresh water an hour. One boil after. Saves wood and time.
grab the enamel basin from the shelf, fill it from the water tap, and dump the limpets in to soak

An hour. way make sure the water is clean, or they'll taste sandy.
pull my notebook from my pocket and sketch the morphology of the sea beet leaves I found earlier.
