Hot Diddley Dot
Thank you so much lovely people for helping me out with my scanning problem. Here's a pot of tea to share with me as my way of saying thanks ;)
It's soooooooo hot and I'm too hot to do anything much even though things call to me to be done constantly. Our weather stick is looking happy though! It's an amazing thing, when the weather will be fine, it looks like this but when rain or cooler weather is on the way, it points downwards. The same principle as a fir cone I suppose except a bit more dramatic!No sign of it changing yet.
It was too hot to sit outside for very long yesterday, PLUS I wanted to sketch really quickly to avoid fussing over it. I just sat down and sketched whatever was in front of me.
This is what was in front of me.

In all my years and travels have never heard of a weather stick ! Does it really work ??? Would love to hear more about the inner workings of a weather stick... gosh, is there a tiny barometer in the base, that instead of having a needle turn, it winds up or lets out a small chain in the stick ??? Hard to imagine no mechanical process, unless it's something akin to the way sunflowers follow the sun across the heavens ? Purely natural expansion or contraction of cells in the wood??? Or just plain magic ?
Did you make it Jessie?
I have never heard of one before. Very interesting!:)
