The mud-splattered farm girl is officially gone. Good thing I keep good receipts. I’m at the distributor now, I want answers from the cooperative 🌲

I forced the surveyor into the high-tunnel while Chunk blocked the exit. After exposing his digital betrayal, I made him sign a confession. Now he’s feeding corporate developers false data from the inside—or facing grand larceny.

Welcome to Timber & Thistle 🌲

I just caught the distributor hiding a 12% surcharge on the coop's grain bills. "Fuel” is Line 4B. This farm girl just brought a masterclass in accounting to town, and she's not leaving without answers 🌲

Tracked the green glow to the creek. Found a sphere spinning inside the bedrock valve. Granddad's brass astrolabe is spinning on its own, and pine needles are literally floating inches off the ground. I think the developers are hunting an anomaly 🌲

Spent the day transplanting heirloom pumpkin starts into the south fields. It felt good to to be in the dirt after last night's anomaly. So happy to be on my daybed in my flannels, tea in hand, decoding granddad's technical notes. 🎃🧭🌲

The ocean has a way of just clearing the everyday static. I took a detour down to Lincolnville Beach with Chunk to watch a brilliant pink and golden sunrise over the bay. No office, just pure freedom before the harvest today 🌊🌲

Shifting gears into recovery mode after a long day in the fields. Coffee on the porch with Chunk, right before a text about missing coop funds changes everything. Time to protect the land 🌲

Maine mud threatens to swallow my boots, but the fencing won't fix itself 🌲

The a-hole surveyor sent false coordinates to the lead developer, redirecting machinery and legal permits to an abandoned quarry three miles away. They think they bought a goldmine, but it's a legal black hole. The trap is sprung, the land is secured, and the mystery is closed 🌲

It turns out the corporate suits went silent because an insider was feeding them the coordinates of my granddad's infrastructure. Chunk found his Jeep hidden in the woods; his tablet showed our water rights mapped. I’m waiting at the north gate for him. I'm going to lose my sh*t 🌲

Two-fingers, and a master map update. Cataloging today's ridge line coordinates right into granddad’s 1964 journal files 🧭

The puzzle pieces are completely coming together, and the physical boundary line matches the paper title deeds perfectly.

I’m inside the humid high-tunnel hand-tying sugar snap pea vines to the trellis grids. The developers are busy spending their afternoon scrambling for a legal backdoor around my water rights, but I’m one step ahead.

Developers backed off, but their fake report made us dig deeper. Chunk and I ventured into the north marsh, braving sticky heat and muck. Our efforts paid off... I found historic rusted iron water pipes under wild ferns! Granddad’s 1964 journal was spot on about the old foundry 🌲
