The news in the last week of May was horrible and local. Local in that the events took place in Canada. CBC played an audio clip of a man under the influence of the drug known as Bath salts. The growling makes me think that this is what devolution may be like. A doctor in New Glasgow, 60 km from here, had dealt with 17 cases and is worried. The other piece of horror took place in Montreal. Not a simple murder, but one with the perpetrator seeking notoriety by sending body parts of the victim to schools and political headquarters. I fled to Henning Mankell's fiction in which his detective, Kurt Wallander, encounters violent crimes. I buried my head into the Swedish scenes.
Today we went to pick up the parts for fixing the PTO on the tractor and I helped myself by getting bedding plants: tomato, broccoli, savoy cabbage, and pepper. Seeds include peas, radish, beets and carrots. The last come in tapes for easing planting. We are into luxury.
