About me

Location small town north of the arctic circle, Canada
Introduction We're two sourdoughs living and working in a small town north of the arctic circle. We created this blog for family and friends and other curious folk (like you!) who might be interested in what such a life might be like.
Interests That man I married, books that make me think question or cry, summer winds at midnight, the sound of water lapping on rocks of a northern lake, spicy smells of autumn leaves, the smell of a forest after a rain, learning things I didn’t know or thought I did but had all wrong

If mud is dirt plus water, what is clay?

I bet this question drives soil scientists nuts! I'm not one but I know that wet dirt definitely doesn't equal clay, which is chemically different. (Unless your "mud" = a wet loam with a high proportion of clay over sand or silt).
