Good Morning:

This week I was working in the courtyard and noticed how beautiful the leaves were on the Mein Onkel tree. The wine Mein Onkel is named after my brother, Uncle Dick, after his death 6 yrs. ago we planted a memorial tree for him. The tree has been slow to grow, but now it is beginning to have some heft. When it was young Jon accidentally backed over it with the van and it popped back up. That fall it also got badly deer rubbed and still survived. Seeing the tree now, I thought it a good selfie moment with my brother now.

The Construction Advances

We've made good progress on our building addition this week. When done it will be 3,000 square ft. of pallet wine storage. We should be able to fit 30 to 40 thousand gallon of wine and cider in bottles into this space. Or I told Jon it could also make a very nice basketball court. (Forget the basketball, I was always too short to play.) Below I have some photos of the construction to date.
