state of the rone

[rone]

I've been spending more time with Hallcrest: i prepared yeast and added it to a tank of chardonnay i helped harvest; i showed up at 06:45 one morning to help sanitize the bottling machine; and last weekend, 2wanda came with me to help pick a bunch of cabernet sauvignon grapes (we got just over a ton) at some recondite house almost smack dab in the middle of the line between Morgan Hill and Scotts Valley, after which we had a big party to celebrate.  I'll be picking more grapes for them on Sunday.  In addition to that, we pressed our pinot noir, which yielded nine gallons.

Still no job, although i'm feeling quite hopeful that i'll be employed by the end of the month.  I've gotten some valuable (and some not-so-valuable) feedback from places that have turned me down.

One of these days I'd like to see you make wine. It's been years since I worked at a winery, I kind of miss it.

Maybe we'll make an event of it next year.

I'd like that.
