Typhoon nr 15 came and went. Strongest in many many years according to the locals and the news. The garden made it through though, luckily the only veggies I still had going were the tomatoes which have all fallen down. Otherwise, the mess after the typhoon is hard to distinguish from the mess before the typhoon. The only change is that all the small pine trees are now leaning trees.

The chicken run door was wide open. But thanks to my good craftsmanship the chicken coop door had held. The only thing was that the chicken coop's roof rubber cover had blown off, so the narrow and long opening between the roof's two halves had become exposed, letting the rain and the wind into the coop. Poor chickens were terrified and a bit wet but still ok in their coop. I let them out and gave them food. Very slowly and hesitantly they came out and forgot all about wind and rain as soon as they saw their food. I fixed their roof isolation. Other than that, not really so much damage. The saplings all made it through, and so did the trees and bushes. The walnuts had started to lean just a little bit but I fixed that by pushing it back into place and stump a little on the soil on one side, and then tied the whole thing together with a bit of rope. The passion fruit trellis had fallen over but thankfully there was a wall behind it so it didn't fall all the way. I fixed it back. Good thing it had already dropped all its fruits.

I think the passion fruits were now ready to eat, so cut them open and they were super tasty. A very nice comfort after the bad typhoon.

| Juicy and sweet. Hope to get many more next year. |
