It was a good day. Weather said chance of thunder storms, but it only got cloudy in the morning. The "work" today was putting labels on the wine we had bottled. (Last years fermentation). There were almost 6 cases of red, three cases of Muscat and Just over two cases of white. After getting that done we bottled the "Joy Juice". A mix I make of 1/2 white grape, 1/4 apple and 1/4 pear. Put half of that in champaign bottles (one case) and the other half in clear beer bottles (24). We had just gotten that done and the sun was about to set when the call came in. A neighbor, that I had only met a few times, called. He was moving out and had dropped his trailer off the edge of the road. The edge of the road was on the center of the axel and the two tires were out in the air. (The couple were going to buy a parcel, but the partners they had gone in with had backed out and they couldn't afford the whole thing.) The road was so narrow no traffic could get by. I went over with ropes, chains and two come-alongs. Broke the cable on the small come-along and a carbine on one chain but did get their trailer back on the road and helped tow them up the steep dirt road, (the truck they rented wasn't 4 wheel drive.) We worked in the dark, but they were so happy to have their problem solved.
God, I wish getting * and his administration out of office was so easy.
Tomorrow I'm off with some friends to hike into some hot springs. It is a long hike so they plan to spend two nights. I think I may only stay one. My partner is taking care of the animal feeding chores I usually do and I don't want to burden him too much. He has to feed the sheep away from the barn so he can get to the pig pen without the Rams being trouble, and I worry about him feeding the pigs. I go in their pen all the time, but he is a little order and has a bad knee.
