The Burning Season
Wisps of smoke curl from nearly every valley, field and open space. This is a small window of time when damp ground, the possiblility of precipitation and yard clippings coalesce to create a time honored ritual. It is the burning season.
Spring arrives shortly thereafter. Like a phoenix rising from its own ashes, the greening of the 9 Mile Valley is about to begin.
Pine needles shed in an August windstorm last year are safely burned in the damp of spring.
