Here comes the winter!

It's hard to believe that only 2 months ago we couldn't stay in the pool long enough to try and beat the heat. After surviving another scorching summer and some severe brushfire conditions, here I am again splitting firewood! A lot of April rain has filled the dams and tank and has greened everything up. Strangely the tomatoes are still producing fruit despite the cold conditions. 


It's also that time again to adjust the PV array angle for maximum winter solar gain. The next job is to start preparing the vineyard site. This year it will happen!
