Day 87: Rain and more rain… Why can I never manage to photograph rain coming down? Well today, profuse rain and flash floods. Builders unable to work on the wheelchair ramp. Tiling on store room sink done instead. Will wheelchairs ever be able to roll around our vineyard without sinking?

Rain damage worsens and ruts deepen, but it is worth it when we see the progress with the wheelchair ramp. Overjoyed at the stone circle and side steps. Really sets the rose off well. Cannot wait for the work to start on the greenhouse.

After a thorough henspection, Bernie and Ginger thought a rectangular sand pit was being built for them. Then the builders filled it in with gravel. Spoilsports!

Rain stopped and sun made a brief appearance. I surveyed the mud bath. The dumper truck is making such massive ruts and the ground is too sodden to complete the second wheelchair ramp for the time being. Certainly wheelchairs would not be able to proceed down the lawn to the vineyard!!!

Rained all night. Ground too sodden for builders. Ahhh! I need this work finished. The Swithland Church Mens Group visit (orininally Monday) has been postponed. I have busied myself in delivering more wine to David Norths delicatessen up the road. This is their third delivery of Fearless in one week. Apparently Fearless is the number…
