And on a day we meet to walk the line
And set the wall between us once again.
We keep the wall between us as we go.
To each the boulders that have fallen to each.
And some are loaves and some so nearly balls
We have to use a spell to make them balance:
‘Stay where you are until our backs are turned!’
– Robert Frost, Mending Wall
At last, here’s the video I promised you of the work on rebuilding the retaining wall on the north side of the chateau. We were considerably luckier than Frost and his neighbor in that most of the stones we built with were fell into the “loaves” category. No magical spells for us, although there is some cement just in case.
So without further ado…

Yeah, I’ve got a contract to narrate some of the BBC’s upcoming Planet Mars series. I’ll be in the episodes titled “Dust” and “Rocks That Look Like Water Used To Be There”. It’s gonna be awesome.
