Since SDF seems to be down much of the time, this is a good place for a pleasant update. I went for a lovely group trip today, to a forested area near a shared garden. Networking truly has its advantages, because apart from enjoying nature itself we ended up in a tent belonging to a neighbourhood group that served some authentic garden soup with all sorts of vegetables. I’m too urban to grow anything myself, but food for social purposes is one of the best things in life. If you get a chance to experience something like that, go for it.
