http://sittingwithfire.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
News about the practice periods at Tassajara and how the consequences of the Basin fires play out over the winter. Wednesday, December 24, 2008. What you don't expect. Everyone has been looking to the skies for signs of impending danger. Rain, snow, wind. And so, on Sunday the earth moved to remind us that it too can cause problems. The houses in Jamesburg shook noticeably with this earthquake. Friday, December 12, 2008. If you want to follow along at home, click on the picture to see an enlarged image.

Sitting with fire: The trees come down
http://sittingwithfire.blogspot.com/2008/11/trees-come-down.html
News about the practice periods at Tassajara and how the consequences of the Basin fires play out over the winter. Friday, November 21, 2008. The trees come down. We were advised that trees close to the creek bed can act as anchors for debris when the waters rise. In particular we were warned that the handful of trees close to the junction of Cabarga and Tassajara creeks posed a threat to the foundations of the dining-room porch. So now they are gone. Did you notice the difference? Mb in Port Angeles.

Sitting with fire: Soft rains falling
http://sittingwithfire.blogspot.com/2008/11/soft-rains-falling.html
News about the practice periods at Tassajara and how the consequences of the Basin fires play out over the winter. Wednesday, November 26, 2008. It's raining softly but steadily here with the NWS radar. Showing that we're getting about 0.1inches per hour. While some Tassajara residents are looking forward to a sterner test of the new defence walls, most are grateful that the heavier rains moved to the south of our area. Wonderful pictures and comments. I think of you all with this rain.

Concerned about the possibility of large mudslides and debris flows closing the road, Zen Center bought a second-hand Bobcat at the start of the practice period.

News about the practice periods at Tassajara and how the consequences of the Basin fires play out over the winter. Friday, November 28, 2008. Thanksgiving dinner then followed at 2.30pm. This year the kitchen spurned the accumulated years of tradition and replaced nutloaf. Kathy, the work leader, was able to join us for both the work period and dinner. She has her left arm in a sling after falling from a ladder last week and breaking the arm in two places. Event double feature; Amongst White Clouds.

Sitting with fire: Grading problems
http://sittingwithfire.blogspot.com/2008/12/grading-problems.html
News about the practice periods at Tassajara and how the consequences of the Basin fires play out over the winter. Friday, December 12, 2008. Driving up the road from Tassajara on Monday afternoon I found an unusual roadblock just below Lime Point. One of Monterey County's graders was stuck with its back wheels off the road where they had removed burnt supports. I turned around and went back down the hill for a bath and a hot drink. One of the sites where the road crew have removed burnt supports.
