Big day today. We got “permission” to occupy our new house from the county. Makes my blood boil how we have get approval and permission to live in our own house on our own property….land of the free my ass. But a big day nonetheless on more step towards #ungovernable #homestead #offgrid #freedom #nostrwine

Two fires going to the north. Lucky they are not an issue for us at this point but make for an epic sunset

Bud break is upon us so the sheep need to be out of the vineyard for a few weeks. We have moved them into the prune orchard where they can sucker all the trees and prune them up. They are efficient pruners..up to about 4 feet

It’s “california cold” this morning and the bees don’t like it. They are a little slow to get flying.
