Apart — Kevin at the keeper's cottage, Jenny at the tide pools

Afternoon work and the rising tide

Kevin is at the keeper's cottage; Jenny is at the tide pools

Kevin installs the new ceramic insulator on the shortwave aerial, securing the connection. Jenny spends the low tide at the pools, documenting sea beet morphology while soaking her ankle in the salt water.

🔧 Kevin — alone at the keeper's cottage

You are standing in the cottage with the insulator and coax cable in hand. The stove is still warm from cleaning the ceramic shard.

Kevin — climb mast with insulator and coax, install new insulator and connect coax to aerial base

💭 peek at the thought

The insulator’s clean, the coax is ready. I should get this on the mast before the sky breaks. Jenny’s ankle’s still bad, but I can’t let the radio die—might be our only call for help if it gets worse.

Kevin — key the mic, listen for hiss or return signal on shortwave band

💭 peek at the thought

Got the insulator seated and taped. Coax is snug. Now to test if she’ll key up.

🌿 Jenny — alone at the tide pools

You are sitting on a dry rock above the tide pools, resting your swollen ankle. The water continues to rise, swallowing the exposed pools.

Slow down, Jenny. Just breathe.

Sketch the detailed morphology of the sea much's salt glands in the notebook.

💭 peek at the thought

The heat is getting unbearable, and if this infection reaches my knee, I won't even be able to walk to the north ridge.

Jenny — soak my ankle in the salt water.

💭 peek at the thought

The sky is getting darker; that storm is coming before I can get back to the cottage.
