Spring Accomplishments
This spring, several things were accomplished.  There was the usual spring pruning.  In addition, Mike built a greenhouse and prepared Syrah cuttings to be planted after the fall harvest, and the family planted herbs and vegetables.   A new road was built and new posts were put along it.  Best of all, construction of the new barn began!
