Good morning ;) Well Andrius have to say it every time now !!! we giggling when he says it now

Taking everything in stride, and doing what you can, when you can. It's probably frustrating at times, and that's why it's important to get the wine ready!😂 Thanks for sharing this.❤

Sometimes it just seems we got so much to do in short time .. but it's fun at the same time .. like tasting wine ;)

The weeds your cat was stalking through make the most awful stickers when the spikes dry. They spiral and have a hooked end to them. I had them in my yard when I lived in California. That olive wood is really nice.

That's the one we constantly found on Guffy last year .. we wasn't sure which weed it's from .. thank you for letting us know :)

That wood would make amazing cheese or charcuterie platters and coasters...you could sell them to your subscribers or gift them in competitions

Always better to work to weather conditions. Bit of bad luck you couldn’t complete the foundation pour. The weather world wide seems to be causing all sorts of problems. It certainly seems to be have been very wet since the start of the year! ❤

You have to move from job to job as weather demands and of course when the olive trees need pruning you have to give them priority. The soup looked so delicious! It’s nice to have a lot of greens to put in it.

In this weather they will be flooded again as another 3" forecast for the next 5 days. My tank is full before today's rain so if and when I get down the farm again I expect it to be overflowing. Good for summer irrigation as we might see another 22 summer yet, but won't know for 3 months yet.

Should the floor area get soaked + flooded , possibly trapping water in, against the foundation and the bedrock.. Would covering it be an idea ? 🤔

we didn't went that road :) If we will ever need anything dug and we will need to use dynamite that would be fun ;) good suggestion thank you ;)

It pains me to see all those olive tree prunings not being turned into chips. All that carbon adding to atmospheric CO2 and not feeding the soil fungi. I know that chippers don’t come cheap . There will be an ongoing need. One of your fellow U Tubers is waiting for a chipper that takes power from his tractor’s PTO. It might take a season or two to justify itself. The only burning of wood should be for indoor heating in winter. I would not be surprised to see the banning of burning of many things coming over time. Just a thought..Good luck
