Going back in August
budding · planted 2026-08 · tended 2026-10
The road into the valley, August 2026.Every August I go home for two weeks. The tree had a heavy year. Granny made jam in the same basin as in 1990. My aunt, retired now, still prints her lessons for an old man in Nurzhan who has no Tulpar and sends them by post.
I sat with Granny and the notebook, finally. The grafting varieties are on their way into Grafting, as my grandfather did it.
