Have you read Damien Lewis? If not, I believe you'd appreciate his books, all are well researched, factual page turners. Brothers in Arms is the first book. He also wrote the book this movie is based on: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Min...

Screenshot of books by Damien Lewis about the origins and actions of Churchill's Special Services during WW2, the first book is Brothers in Arms, the second, Forged In Hell.

I enjoyed looking at your photographs. Coincidentally, I was looking through my old photographs yesterday, my feelings mirrored yours. Here's one of me and my brother in the 1990's-

I agree completely, we can't afford not to. Here in CA, I've almost finished doubling my garden with this 3rd plot. Gopher proofing now complete, tomorrow the soil (50% native, 50% compost) and olla system, plants/seeds by Wednsday.

8x8x8 ft raised bed garden plot after finishing gopher proof, soil, olla watering systems, plants go in next 2 days.

I live in a log cabin built in 1890 in the National Forest, we use steel wool as well, and hold the steel wool in with stainless steel gopher mesh or rat mesh covering the hole plus expanding filler foam works well, the rats can't chew through it.

I'm currently Libby listening to the Correspondents. I find it helpful to listen to factual stories about people who lived in the 30's and 40's to help me remember we will get through this authoritarian time.
