This is what one of the newer vineyard parcels out back looks like after the plow passes. The tractor with the plow straddles the vine row and, as it moves through the parcel, turns the soil on both sides of the vine trunks. The result is not particularly pretty, and it makes walking between the rows awkward at best. We casual walkers can avoid the plowed rows, but vineyard workers have to deal with them.
Friday was another productive day! I power-washed the deck, opened up the bbq grill, and brought the table and chairs up from the garage. This morning, our indoor temperature is just above the point where the central heating comes on. In other words, it's the first morning since winter began that we haven't needed heat. However, morning temps in the single digits are predicted to return from Sunday forward. Yuck.
Is this when you turn those into swords? You guys are so much tougher than we are. 15C? Turn up the heat and get out Jerry’s long johns!
ReplyDeleteI think I saw one of those plows once. These farmers have been doing this for a while so I trust their techniques.
ReplyDeleteGood work, getting that big set of chores done!
ReplyDeleteSpring envy here. Cleaning up our deck, outdoor furniture, glass railings, and windows is always a big, wet, dreaded 2-day undertaking at our place. When we were younger, we were able to accomplish this in a day too. It’s too soon to do it here though.
ReplyDeletepower washing the deck! I remember having that done ! Big job, that.
