Tending the Vineyard

Are you appreciating one small benefit from the quarantine--and that's the captive labor force?

Not only have my kids helped with more projects, but they have also done so with less complaining.

Last year, Brad didn't have time to thin the peach tree, and it split, losing a sizable branch. This year we enlisted all the troops to help.

It didn't take that long and they had pretty good attitudes most of the time.

It's been so beautiful around here lately, but 100-degree temperatures are headed our way probably by Monday.
