Apart — Kevin at the dock, Jenny at the garden

The air thickens

Kevin is at the dock securing the dinghy, while Jenny is in the garden weeding.

The humidity is heavy as the barometer continues to drop, signaling an approaching front. Kevin checks the dinghy's lines and the dock's integrity, while Jenny monitors the germinating seedlings in the humid midday heat.

🔧 Kevin — alone at the dock

You double-check the spring lines as the wind begins to tug at the dinghy.

Kevin — check the forward and aft spring lines on the dinghy, pull them tight and re-cleat with extra turns. Glance at the barometer reading on the cottage porch as I pass.

💭 peek at the thought

Wind's shifted. Spring lines are singing. Good I checked them now — barometer's falling steady and the swell's building out past the point.

🔧 Kevin03:54

Kevin — walk up to the cottage porch, pick up the shortwave handset. Tune to the supply boat frequency first, then Tom's old channel. Log the time, frequency, signal strength, and the barometer reading in the notebook.

💭 peek at the thought

Radio check at noon. Habit more than hope at this point. But the falling glass says listen anyway — fronts move different when the pressure drops this fast.

🌿 Jenny — alone at the garden

You clear competing shoots from the heirloom tomato seedlings, feeling the humidity rise against your skin.

🌿 Jenny03:52

Not yet. way not yet.

wipe sweat from my brow with the back of a dirty hand and check the soil of the smallest tray.

💭 peek at the thought

If the rot gets these before they harden off, I'll have nothing left but sketches of ghosts.

🌿 Jenny03:56

Jenny — stand up and stretch my knees, looking own the gathering clouds over the north ridge.

💭 peek at the thought

The pressure is dropping again. I can feel it in my joints.
