Big fun. This is the stuff that I live for. I’m never as happy as when I’m building something and using up all my scraps at the same time.

Sadly I’ve gotten away from it. Drowned in other complexities of life. I appreciate you putting your story up here. I’m partly envious. But it also reminds me of something I’m quick to forget. If someone doesn’t remind me. I need some inspiration these days.

My grandfather always said that the smell of fall was ozone. This Washington Post article says that that is part of it, but also has other factors. https://archive.is/SkuVI (from https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2018/10/19/scent-season-explaining-aromas-fall/)

It would be interesting to compare the scent-of-fall from places that have plenty of pine trees to those that do not, or places that do wet/dry season rather than summer/winter.
