Février 2018 (4)

Photos in and around the Renaudière vineyard as it looked in February 2018. I can't say it's changed much since then. There's been no building. The road remains upaved. A few parcels of vines have been ripped out, but those patches of earth will be replanted in vines next year or the year after. I don't envy the people who own and tend vines — there's a lot of hard work involved, and the weather is not always cooperative.

    1. These dual band wifi adapters are great. My old router didn't have 5Ghz capabilities, but the network didn't seem to be particularly slow. But reading the speed test results, I see that we used to get 0.8 Mbps uploads, and now we get 80, 150 or even 200 Mbps uploads.

  2. " I don't envy the people who own and tend vines — there's alot of hard work involved" Did you read Susan Walter's post about farmers coming up to retirement with no one to follow....?

    1. I did read Susan's post. A lot of young people don't want to live such a hard life. They prefer life in a profession and in a big city.
