September 3rd 2013. A beautiful morning and some building work.

September 3rd 2013 update

The Casa De La Realidad is quietening down now. We had a super busy August with people visiting and coming to stay. We were averaging around 15 to 20 in the house for a couple of weeks. 

Silviu has just left for Ecuador. We will see him back in December. 

Now we have Andreea, Lucas, Ivi, Peter and myself living in the house. 

Said is working with Lucas on the new "cave store". Said is living in Gotcha.

You can see the "Dutch" houses of "Little Amsterdam" in the far background, then Graham and Alice's house, and the Casa De La Realidad in the foreground. The second picture shows the Hueli quarry eating away at the mountain. !

A new Paella dish and an excellent Paella fromEnrique. Muy Bien. !!

Good evening to you all. I found a new path this evening giving us some new perspectives on the valley. Still no rain. !!

Here we are, Mira and myself. ! Still no rain. Just a little thunder and lightning last night. Maybe tomorrow, or maybe tonight. !!

It's all pretty dry. We still have a good flow down the irrigation Line but we have no more holes to fill. Any leaks are very minor. This is it: ! Right now a storm is approaching with thunder and lightning and it has just started to rain, I am keeping my fingers crossed for a lot of litres of rain per square meter over the next few days.

 This is the main water entrance for the Irrigation Line.

 You see the flow from "The Naciamento" has nearly stopped.

 This is "the stream" from the Nacamiento,

 Not much water. !

I am now up on the "plateau". Very dry. !

The beams for the new bath are now set. We are starting the new "cave" food store. ! Said is the "cave" Maestro. !

Here are Neo and Tao, the children of Idris and Katya. Nice floor too. !!

This is a good picture of Ed sanding the floor. That was a big job. !!

These are the beams for the "split level", bath platform. Peter is the Maestro on this job. We are waiting for the bath to arrive in Sorbas.

This was another good ceremony with Mira. We even had a light rainfall early in the moning. As you can se we need more.rain. !!

Hello All,

I apologize for the lack of posts over the last few weeks. I am "back on the case".

This morning I took some frog poison with Mira. It seems to have stimulated me to get "on the blog". !!

The Australian Earth Law Alliance have asked me to speak at their   Conference, so, on September 23rd, I am off to Brisbane. !!

Wild Law Conference 2013

"Living within our ecological limits: law and governance to nurture the Earth Community", 27-29 September, Southbank, Brisbane
