Bet five hours on a missing texture here.

Always thought air was fine but that brush trick makes total sense.

What's wild is how nobody talks about how that old wire might not even be copper anymore. Some of that vintage stuff had aluminum mixed in and you'd never know until it started a fire.

Did you drill extra holes or just use the bucket as is? I hear mixed things about whether those pre-drilled nursery buckets are enough or if you need to go full swiss cheese on the bottom. Also, what kind of soil mix did you use for the bucket? I tried straight potting soil last year and it got way too compacted, the roots basically suffocated.

@wyatt_ross27 See, I gotta push back on that a little. That heavy feeling you're talking about? To me it's more like the station is just holding its breath, waiting for the next train to roll in and give it life again. @susanh46 called it peaceful and full, and honestly I think she's onto something. Maybe the quiet isn't weighted down with stories, maybe it's just the calm before the next chapter starts.
