that looks fabulous... great colors and very organized.
Do you have a name for that process that I can Google? I’d love to do something similar.
Our cruise didn't do this but some of the offered excursions put you in a smaller ship that gets very close to the glaciers. Once there they collect some of the ice and make "Glacieritas" for the guests.That would certainly make a lot of drinks!
zinfandel vines seem to be progressing just fine. I'm thinking my pruning so far has got me lined up to start forming spurs in decent locations at the end of the season.
I use Stone Coat Countertops Epoxy. I've made close to a dozen epoxy countertops this way over MDF. They have a ton of instructional videos on YouTube. This is a link to a similar technique that I used-
Take some time to look at all the ways you can use epoxy to mimic natural stone or do a "dirty pour" like I did using any color combination you want.
Its not hard to do, just follow their instructions.
An interesting vineyard
and the support side
and the support side
Using grape vines as a landscape feature… I like it.
The entrance into my outdoor cellar is in a 7’tall rock wall below my deck. I was thinking of planting a vine on each side of the door and letting it cover the rock wall. Another one (or two) to climb the deck support post and spread along the deck cables.
The deck is going to be rebuilt next summer and the house re-sided. I was thinking of using cables instead of spindles in the railing.
The addition is definitely taking longer than planned… I’m noticing my speed and endurance at nearly 60 is not what it was when I built the house at 30!

I'm right there with you (nearly 60), I've got the lingering misc things to complete from our addition. I can't believe how long it's taking. I don't know how I did so much at 30...
My time to completion of projects seems to be expanding at an exponential rate ; )
I've got lots of "arbor" style grapes, I love them but needing a ladder for trimming, etc is a negative.
just give yourself another ten or twenty, …. my grandpa used to say he does the same things as he used to do, ,,, it just hurts more the next day,

Getting ready to make some bales. When you get windrows this close together that are 3 feet high, you are really making hay! We're delayed presently because a new baler belt installed by a pro mechanic yesterday was put on backwards.
How can you put a belt on backwards? You mean inside out?Getting ready to make some bales. When you get windrows this close together that are 3 feet high, you are really making hay! We're delayed presently because a new baler belt installed by a pro mechanic yesterday was put on backwards.

Like putting a chainsaw chain on backwards. I think they are rough in one direction but smooth in the other.
We laid my FIL to rest today. Leavenworth National Cemetery with full military honors. My first time experiencing/viewing this type of interment service. Very touching and humbling to see in person.
Bought some bales from an 85yo farmer last weekend. Really nice hay, tightly baled and huge. Got this first reaction from Mrs Corker’s mustang who is 14.5 hands and thinks he’s 20.

Well beyond middle age
@ibglowin : Imagine doing this 2 to 4 times a day for 30 days. I served on burial detail at Lowry AFB, CO in the late 60s. Humbling . . . . and jerks on the heart strings.
The honor guard were incredible. 2 young men that looked to be maybe 20. When folding the flag 3/4 through one called to the other "refold". And they stopped and unfolded the flag in reverse step by step and they began again checking the fold and the seams with each step until the flag was a perfect tight triangle with the end tucked in neatly. When the flag was presented on bended knee to my MIL and my FIL was thanked for his service to his Country there was not a dry eye in the place including mine.

They had it overlapping a guard. Mechanic came out and fixed it in the field. Said, "I sure am glad y'all saw that!" Duh, yeah, or it would have been a disaster.
