The wine journey is on a bit of a hiatus, although the winemaking is continuing. Last year’s batch of Syrah is ready for bottling finally. This year’s batch of Zinfandel is coming along… Speaking of which, I should test that tonight for blending.
Countdown is under way for when the wine journey can re-commence: 5 months and 26 days, according to the docs.

There are thousands of grape varietals. Before I die, I would like to try as many different single varietal wines as possible. Not that I don’t like blended wine, but I really want to understand the characteristics that each component brings.

I think I could carry a blog just telling stories about illogical government bureaucracy and censoring. But I can’t… These days, I feel like there is no freedom of speech anymore. And being a government employee, I could lose my job. How wrong is that?

We tore out some weed trees with lots of suckering roots. To hold up the dirt, we built this wall. After three trips to Sislers, it’s done.

Finally put in some new shades. These are Hunter Douglas duette honeycomb shades with Architella fabric. It has an R-value of 6.25. It is amazing how much of a difference the shades make with the temperature in the room, even with only two of the four shades installed.
Costco has been awesome. There was a problem with a couple with them. We had them remade with no problem. Should be arriving soon.
