Spent the better part of today using the import function at http://www.dreamwidth.org/misc/import.bml

The entries all imported successfully, as did the tags and the custom access groups.  However, the comments have not initiated after <strike>two</strike> four  hours.  The Info page at http://dw-news.dreamwidth.org/2826.html indicates that the number of people importing has increased to the point that it could take upward of 5 hours, though, so I will wait until tomorrow to look into it more.

Today was rather fun - We are taking it easy out in the woods this weekend.  Our creek, which had very little water all fall and winter, has suddenly begun going strong.  We've been putting little check dams all along the creek to allow the water to sink into the ground and collect more.  The theory is that this will assist in collecting the water into the ground, and encouraging the creek to flow longer during the year.  It is a seasonal creek right now, and we thought it would be great if it flowed year round across our property.  Here' are a couple of articles about check dams:
